The juvenile plegadis ibis just flew away from the field it was in, and seemed to be descending to land in the Couture Dyke trail area of Hillman Marsh, which is private property and a pretty busy hunting location. Hunting season is on now so I strongly encourage that no one enters this area. It's probably worth looking around the public areas of Hillman Marsh if interested.
The Nelson's Sparrow has been seen pretty recently at the corners of Mersea Rd 21 and Mersea Rd 2, slightly north of Hillman Marsh, which is east of Leamington, Essex County.
