This morning I came across a male Red-necked Phalarope at the Winchester lagoons. It was in the closest cell to County Road 3 which has lower water levels creating excellent shorebird habitat. Several hundred individual shorebirds were present, the majority being Least Sandpipers. A White-rumped Sandpiper was also present and 3 Snow Geese were in the adjacent cell to the south.
The lagoons are located off County Road 3, a few km northeast of Winchester in Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry united counties. Good birding, Josh Vandermeulen Sent from my iPhone _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
