While not rare birds, I thought I would quickly mention that I had what I presumed to be south bound shorebirds today at Tilbury. 2 molting adult Lesser Yellowlegs, 2 mostly alternate plumaged Least Sandpipers, 1 molting adult Semipalmated Sandpiper, among the usual Killdeer and Spotted Sandpipers. Hopefully something good will show up soon - I'm holding out for a Ruff. Also, many Great Egrets, 2 Common Terns, and 1 Caspian Tern were present at the lagoons.
Good birding, Josh Vandermeulen >From exit 56 on the 401, travel west on County Road 42 for .5 km. Turn right >(north) on Edgefield Sideroad and at the end turn right (east) onto Lakeshore >303. The sewage lagoons are two km down on the right. > _________________________________________________________________ Learn more ways to connect with your buddies now http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9734388_______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
