Well, a group of us hit the hawk tower at Holiday Beach Conservation Area this evening after a meeting to see the two continuing Snowy Egrets in the pond west of the tower, and a third Snowy Egret showed up! So as of tonight there are THREE Snowy Egrets at Holiday Beach in Amherstburg, Essex County. Holiday Beach is on Rd 50 between Amherstburg and Harrow, on Lake Erie. Unfortunately I don't think the gate is usually manned so unless you have a pass I am not sure if you can enter in a car. Whether by car or on foot, follow the road inside Holiday Beach Conservation Area, then follow the signs for the hawk tower.
Also, the continuing PAIR of Eurasian Collared-Doves are still present just outside of Leamington as of this evening. They generally sit together on the hydro line directly in front of house 1213 on Seacliffe Dr. E, very close to Gore Hill public school. Good birding!
