At 8:15PM 5/31/06 Marg Partridge noticed the Wilson's Phalarope in the NE corner of the first lagoon. It was a beautiful female in summer plumage. We had good looks from 100 yds. to 50 yds., ever closer until we left at 9PM. Occassionally it would fly off but return in a short amount of time.
Norm Murr's DIRECTIONS TO TOWNSEND SEWAGE LAGOONS TOWNSEND SEWAGE LAGOONS On the way down to Long Point on Hwy 6 you will pass through Hagersville and drive towards Jarvis. Just as you approach the town of Jarvis you will see a sign indicating "TOWNSEND" at Nanticoke Creek Parkway #69. Turn right here and drive to the intersection with the stop signs, turn left on Keith Richardson Parkway and drive past some park ponds on your right. Drive ahead until you see a small childrens shelter (with an air conditioner on it) on your right at County Rd 14. This is just before you reach the abandoned railway line (tracks removed). Turn right here onto County Rd 14. and drive a few hundred yards and you will see a gate and sign indicating that this is a waste treatment area.. Park well to the side of the road, do not block the gate. If the gate is open (they are on some weekends) then do not park directly across from the gate as the larger "Honey Trucks" need the area to swing into and out of the entrance road.
