A Cattle Egret was seen off the marina on Harbour Street in Brighton
this morning. Others looking for it soon afterwards reported that it
had left and that the gulls with which it was sitting had scattered to
the water as if disturbed. Brighton is reached from exit 509 on Highway
401. Harbour Street runs parallel to the waterfront. The marina is
less than a kilometre west of Cedar Street.
Both this morning and this afternoon a male Eurasian Wigeon was in the
marsh opposite the bird sightings board at Presqu'ile Provincial Park.
The Park is reached by following the signs from Brighton. The bird
sightings board is indicated by a sign in the Park.
