A Western Grebe was seen and photographed off Whimbrel Point at 5:30 pm. It was swimming diving at times relatively close to shore but after each dive moving progressively further east until it was out of site 30 minutes later. Spotted by Ani Kuk and seen by Peter Sproule, Marsh Duggan and I at the same time.
Directions: the park is located south Lakeshore Boulevard off the south end of Kipling ... the road turns into Colonel Smith Drive. Continue south to last parking lot and take the main trail at the cul-de-sac that ends the road to a peninsula with large post with sign "Whimbrel Point" and an adjacent bench. _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists (OFO) - the provincial birding organization.
