I looked for the ibis today but did not see it between noon and 2PM.

Subject: [Ontbirds]White-faced Ibis at Hillman Marsh Sunday Oct 28
The White-faced Ibis was present early Sunday afternoon on both the north
and south sides of Hillman Bridge.
A Great Egret, one juvenile Black-crowned Night-Heron, 20 Greater
Yellowlegs and 2 Lesser Yellowlegs were also present. A very large female
juvenile Peregrine made multiple passes at a bird hidden from our view
without successfully flushing it and moved off.
DIRECTIONS [thanks to Blake Mann]
From Leamington:Take Oak Street east out of the town. When you see the
entrance for Hillman Marsh just keep going a little further until you see
the bridge. The Ibis has been seen from both sides of the bridge.
From 401Tilbury exit south to County Road 1 (Wheatley townline) to Number
#3 highway. Turn right onto the number #3 then watch for the Hillman
Conservation area signs. Follow Rd. 37 to the marsh entrance.
Thanks to all of you who have been reporting its daily presence.
