Noam Markus found a Western Sandpiper this morning at Tommy Thompson Park amongst a large group of peeps in cell 2. The Hudsonian Godwit was also still present as of 11:30am. Also present throughout the morning were Stilt and Pectoral Sandpipers, both Yellowlegs and Semipalmated Plovers. The entire group of shorebirds has been repeatedly flushed by a juvenile Peregrine Falcon and Northern Harrier so patience may be required.
Tommy Thompson Park is at the foot of Leslie St. in Toronto east end. Cell 2 is a long walk from the parking lot (30-40 minutes). Good Birding, Iain Fleming _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists (OFO) - the provincial birding organization.
