Birders, There was a Buff-breasted Sandpiper among a nice assortment of shorebirds at the south end of Wildwood Reservoir this evening (Sep 7). The Buffy was foraging alongside Killdeer in the short grass at the extreme southeast corner of the containment pond, viewed from the berm described below.
Directions: From hwy 401 turn north on Oxford County Rd. 6, towards Stratford. About halfway between Embro and Stratford, turn west onto Oxford Rd 28. Drive through the small community of Harrington and turn north onto 31st Line. After 1 km, on the east side of the road there is a berm that separates the reservoir from the containment pond. Good shorebirding, Yousif Attia London, ON _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists (OFO) - the provincial birding organization.
