Dear Fellow Birders, Not having seen any recent reports for the Leslie St Spit, I thought I would post some good birds that have been seen recently: Whip-poor-will, Yellow Warbler, Palm Warbler, Pine Warbler, House Wren, Winter Wren, Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, Glaucous Gull, Dunlin, Rough-legged Hawk, Rusty Blackbirds, and Purple Finch.
Directions: Follow the Gardiner Expressway east past the DVP until it turns into Lakeshore Rd, then turn right at Leslie St. There is parking at the end of the road.
