[Ontbirds] Ruddy duck at Nonquon Lagoons

[Colette Descent via ONTBIRDS]

Today, a beautiful male Ruddy Duck and his mate were spotted in lagoon #2 
(counting from the East), along with a few Scaups (lesser and greater), Blue 
winged teals and black terns. A pair of wood ducks was seen in the South Lagoon.
The lagoons are in port Perry. 401 Oshawa take simcoe and go north to port
Perry. Travel east on 8 at the north end of town and lagoons are on your
left. Permit required.The lagoons are located one road north of the transfer 
site on Concession Rd. 8 [don't get confused as, despite the fact that these 
roads are both numbered "8", they are two different roads - one is a regional 
paved road, the other a dirt concession road.]. Access to the lagoons is from 
the east end of Conc. 8 only as the bridge is out west of the lagoons.Colette
