Yesterday Joy Yang and I observed a family group of 4 Sandhill Cranes (2 adults, 2 nearly full grown young) in a farmer's field a few kilometres west of Lee Brown's Waterfowl Sanctuary. At Blenheim sewage lagoons, shorebirds present were approximately 170 killdeer, 41 Least Sandpipers, 8 Lesser Yellowlegs and a Spotted Sandpiper. This morning at Rondeau Provincial Park we had 4 Yellow-billed Cuckoos (all vocalizing; 1 seen) and we heard a Black-billed Cuckoo. Mark Kubisz Toronto, ON
