Earlier today Bonnie Kinder and I went to the Mosaic Ponds in Dunnville after reading an ebird report that a Western Sandpiper was seen there yesterday. Vsibility was not great in today's weather but we each took photos of a bird that we thought might be the one reported. Kevin McLaughlin just confirmed that it is indeed a Western Sandpiper. The address for the ponds is 702 Rymer Road, Lowbanks but we viewed this bird from behind the ponds on Feeder Canal Road. Also present were White-rumped Sandpipers, Dunlin, Pectoral Sandpipers, Wilson's Snipe, etc.
