For those looking to take advantage of the improved weather in SW Ontario today, the Black-necked Stilt reported at the Tilburg lagoons is still present today.
At 645 I first observed it in a flooded section of grass before the ponds and it later moved to the right pond after being flushed by a pair of courting Solitary Sandpipers. Also Virginia Rail calling from the area. Walk approx 150 meters down path from parking and scan back shore of pond on your right. The lagoons are Nw of Tilburg off Lake shore. For any concerned the site is explicitly posted as birders welcome .
