Dear Fellow Birders, Did some birding along Hamilton Harbour yesterday and turned up what might be the first fall migrant of the year (and summer only just got here!), which was a Least Sandpiper at the tollgate ponds. Not too much was out of the ordinary in the area, the only other good bird was a Greater Scaup at the CCIW.
Directions: Exit the QEW Niagara at Eastport Drive. At the first stop lights turn right and another immediate right onto a dirt road and the CCIW is here, the scaup was out amongst the islands. To reach the tollgate ponds continue along Eastport drive for another couple of kms as it weaves under the QEW and they will be on your right hand side as you approach the industrial area.
