We observed the juvenile Curlew Sandpiper this morning at about 10:30 (Oct. 13). It was foraging alongside 2 Dunlin. Also some Greater Yellowlegs a bit further along the shore.
Directions: Follow the QEW towards Buffalo,USA. Take the Central Ave Exit as it is the final exit before the USA. Then you want to take a right on Central Ave, then a right onto Lakeshore Rd. When your driving along Lakeshore Rd. you will pass the Old Fort Erie historic site on the right. Just a little past this point on the left you will see a rocky shoreline and this is where the Curlew Sandpiper is being seen. Parking is tight on Lakeshore Rd, so parking on the sideroads is suggested (Adelaide).
