Hi all!
Whilst walking out on the point ~ 0900hrs as part of my regular
'shorebird survey' this plover landed ~20 feet directly in front of me. I
scoped it to look for any bands/flags but could not see any but its lower legs
were blocked by vegetation and as I moved to try for a better angle it flew off
in the direction that the 8 Semi-palmated Plover that originally accompanied
this bird had done, when I first saw the flock.
The location of this relatively flat section of the point is between
the 1st. and 2nd. bush/small tree 'islands' - not very far from the road and
quite easy to access.
Kettle Point is First Nations territory signed from Hwy #21 north of
Forest at the corner of Lakeshore Road.
Cheers! Maris
