With permission of Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA), I am posting this update on the Common Ringed Plover so that people travelling a distance can make plans. The plover was seen at 12:30 by volunteer TRCA staff. The park is open from 4:00 p.m. to 9.
Directions: Tommy Thompson Park is at Leslie and Unwin Avenue in Toronto. Park on Leslie or Unwin. Walk out the main road. Pass the booth in the middle of the road and continue walking until the road forks. Take the left fork and continue walking to Cell 2 on your right. This wetland is newly constructed with islands, logs, stumps, fencing and metal poles. This is a long walk with no shade so please be prepared. I will post another update later this afternoon.
