I saw 3 Great Egrets along the North Thames river trail in Mitchell today. They were about 500 m north of the main bridge.
At the nearby West Perth Wetlands there were good number of shorebirds - Semipalmated Plover, Killdeer, Greater and Lesser Yellowlegs, Solitary Sandpiper, Least Sandpiper, Semipalmated Sandpiper, and Short-billed Dowitcher. Steve Thorpe Stratford West Perth Wetlands are on the south side of Mitchell. From Hwy 7/8 (Ontario St) travel south on Wellington Street to Frank Street, cross the road and park beyond the bal field. _________________________________________________________________ Stay on top of things, check email from other accounts! http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9671355_______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
