There was a CATTLE EGRET at Stewart Wetland west of Wallaceburg this
afternoon. It was on the little island in the wetland at 4:30, then by 5:15
it had moved to roost in some dead Sumacs on the west side of the wetland.
This is the first one around here in a long time!
Directions to Stewart Wetland: Get on hwy 40 between Sarnia and Wallaceburg
and find Langstaff Line which runs east/west just north of Wallaceburg.
From hwy 40 turn west and follow Langstaff Line to its very westerly end
almost 4 km.
You will see MacDonald Park in front of you on the Snye R. Turn left on St.
Clair Parkway and go to the south end of MacDonald Park (0.4 km) where there
is a boat ramp. The wetland is here on the south side of the parking lot.
You can also walk on the dyke.
Port Lambton can be found by turning right on the St. Clair Parkway at this
location and heading north.
