We just found an American Avocet in some puddles in a soon-to-be-built neighbourhood in Leamington. Also present are a number of more common shorebirds, including a number if Solitary Sandpipers.
Technically it's on Summerville Ave. in Leamington, but this might not be considered a street yet as there are no people living in this neighbourhood yet. It's accessible via the east side of County Rd 33 (a continuation of the Hwy 3 bypass) just before it intersects with Seacliffe. County Rd 33 is a tad east of Leamington in Essex County. Good birding to all!
