Dear Ontbirders, Bruce Di Labio and I went down to Presqu'ile late this afternoon and had good success with 327 shorebirds of 13 species. Most birds are along the shore of Beach 3 and 4 but birds are scattered right up to Owen Pt. There were juv's of Killdeer, Spotted S/p, Least S/p, the first Semi S/p of the fall that I have noticed, and Lesser Yellowlegs.

Follow Provincial Park signs to Presqu'ile and park at Beach 3 or the Park Store to access the shorebird habitat.
