The White Pelican was still present at Oshawa Second Marsh at 5:00 this afternoon. It was hunkered down on a mudflat opposite the viewing tower along with cormorants, geese, and mute swans. The exact spot can be sighted by orienting with the building opposite the tower and following the line of small trees (all fairly close together) to the end one, then looking below that tree to the mudflat.
The American Avocet was also still present in Whitby at 5:30. It was the lone shorebird feeding on the mudflat east of the bridge, amongst numerous ducks and geese. There was a Great Blue Heron present as well.
