Hi All,
The Tufted Duck is still present at Bellevue Park giving everyone very close views. It has moved to the west cove this afternoon. A new addition to the area is a Willet found by John Ralston. It was feeding on the mud flats near where the Marbled Godwit has been for the past week. The Marbled Godwit was seen there today as well, but not when I was there at 6:00pm. To get to Bellevue Park take Hwy 17B from the east and continue onto Trunk Rd. Turn left (south) onto Lake St. Drive to the south end of Lake St. and you are at Bellevue Park. The Godwit and Willet are on mud flats to the east of the yacht club house. There is an area where the City Parks Department has hedged off with a cedar hedge. This area is where they have piles of compost and manure. Walk to the edge of the embankment to view the mud flats. Bob & Joanne Knudsen Sault Ste. Marie, ON _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
