With the possible re-appearance of the Red-necked Grebe in the St.
Clair River found by Blake Man yesterday, and the interesting details
provided by Bob and Glenda, it was a surprise to hear that yesterday,a
PIED-BILLED GREBE was picked up off the road on Hwy 21 between the Lambton
County Museum and the Pinery gate. The Feisty bird, identified by Tom
Purdy was released by him into the only patch of easily accessible open
water in the Park. (At the dam close to the store.) The bird dived and
came up with a fish- and after having a snack, preened. Overnight the
bird left.
Hope that this is of some interest.
Pinery Provincial park is South of Grand Bend on Highway
21 in N. Lambton County..
Good Birding. Alf.
