Good evening Today Ian Cannell and I returned from Cobourg Harbour along Lake Shore Road and in the Lakeshore Road / Willow Beach Road area just west of Port Britain we found 89 Eastern Bluebirds, 175+ Cedar Waxwings, 225+ American Robins, 2 Yellow-rumped Warblers, 2 A. Tree Sparrows and a Red-bellied Woodpecker.
At Cobourg Harbour we viewed Red Phalarope, Purple Sandpiper, Dunlin, Pectoral Sandpiper and 5 Black-bellied Plovers with many Red-breasted Mergansers and Lesser Scaup on and over the lake and 28 Bonaparte's Gulls in and outside the harbour. Directions:- Cobourg Harbour Exit Hwy 401 at Exit #474 and drive south to the west side parking lot at the harbour and walk out behind the boat yard. The Shorebirds were on the harbour side of the breakwall.
