A great egret was observed in the stormwater management area of Riverside
South (along River Road) on Saturday. What I assume to be the same bird was
seen in a tree in the same area on Friday afternoon.
Directions: The stormwater ponds are along River Road - heading southbound,
shortly past Leitrim Road on the left hand side. The Egret was observed on
the 3rd pond (furthest south). The stormwater ponds can also be observed
from walking trails accessible from within the subdivision.

I was at the Nonquon S.L. (in Port Perry) this evening from 1930 - =
2030h, and there was a Red Knot mixed in with the other various =
shorebirds. It was actively feeding along the edges at the south end of =
cell #3. There was also a Ruddy Turnstone in this same area. The =
majority of shorebirds were Dunlin and Semipalmated Sandpiper along with =
a few Semipalmated Plovers and singles of Least Sandpiper, Spotted =
Sandpiper and Killdeer.
A permit is required for all people entering the Nonquon S.L. It can be =
purchased for $5.00 at the Durham Region Transfer Station. This is =
located at 1623 Reach St in Port Perry. The hours are Tues - Sat from =
0800 - 1600h and Thurs until 2000h. You can get to the Transfer Station =
by going east on Reach St from Hwy#12 or west from Simcoe St. The =
