Today there were at least three and possibly more Horned Grebes at Laurel Creek Conservation area. They were easily visible from the concrete culvert on Beaver Creek Road, along with a dozen or more Pied-billed Grebes. While this species is certainly not a rarity it is the first time I have ever seen them here and local birders will probably be interested.
Directions: Beaver Creek Road runs off Conservation Drive, west of Westmount Road.
