3:45 pm Monday March 11 2019. There is flock of a couple hundred waterfowl in a wet field on Mersea Rd B immediately west of the Leamington airport.
The most obvious birds are Tundra Swans and Canada Geese. With a scope I could pick out Mallards, Redheads, Pintails, and 6 or 7 Greater White-fronted Geese. Cackling Geese are a good possibility but I'm not 100% - my eyes were streaming in that wind coming right off the Lake Erie ice floes. Joyce Collier-Brown Leamington can be reached from the 401 via hwy 77. Follow the signs for Point Pelee but turn left onto Mersea B before you get there.
