Ontbirders, The Cattle Egret is still in the area but I found it well off to the west of the westernmost point, on the rocky shore. Guessing it's near 28th street but on shore of someone's private property. By a house with rusted staircase and big orange buoy in their yard.
Only visible with scope as bird was likely 500m-1km away (scope at 60x). Small all white egret with bright yellow-orange bill, hunched over look. Black legs. Has moved a couple of times in the 15 minutes I've been here. Update- just flew back to park right in front of me while I was standing here. Good birding, Frank Pinilla Richmond Hill, ON Directions: Col Sam Smith Park is at the southern terminus of Kipling Ave south of Lakeshore Blvd in west Toronto. Walk out to western tip.
