At 12:40 today after searching the onion fields without any luck we discovered a flock of about 10 swallows at the shorebird habitat at Hillman's Marsh. The flock was a mix of Tree and Cave Swallow. I was able to identify at least two Cave Swallows. They were visible from County Road 37 also called Manery Rd. To get there, take Seacliff Rd. East from the south end of Leamington until you reach Manerly Rd. and turn left (North). The birds were about half way up on the right side.
There was also an immature Black Crowned Night Heron on the other side of the river North of the bridge at Wheatley Harbour.
