Good evening Ontbirders, At 4:30pm, with my daughter Alexa in tow, we headed to south Mississauga and immediately upon setting up the scope we found the previously reported Western Grebe swimming and diving (for quite long dives) out towards the barge. It stayed up long enough for me to get my daughter and then a couple of other birders on the bird. When we first saw it, it was inside of the barge near the "bow" and after just 3 dives it was at least 300m in towards the harbour, out near the rock pier.
Good birding, Frank & Alexa Pinilla Directions: J.C. Saddington Park is at the foot of Mississauga Road in Port Credit. Scope preferable but not absolutely necessary (first spotted it with bins).
