Hi Birders, This afternoon Kathryn Hoo and I briefly checked out the Grand Bend sewage lagoons. Close to 3,000 ducks, predominantly dabblers, were present.
In the last cell, we briefly saw a female wigeon, before it spooked, that looked very good for a female Eurasian. I lost the bird shortly after seeing it and unfortunately wasn't able to look much longer, though would expect it is still present. Other birds present include: 1 long-taild duck 1,800 mallard 75 black 350 green-winged teal Directions: from the main intersection in Grand Bend, go east, past the Sobeys. Take the first road right (Mollard Line). Take this a few km. The lagoons will be on your right. Cheers, Ken Burrell Sent from my BlackBerry 10 smartphone _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
