[Ontbirds] Dunlin still at presquile
The long staying dunlin is still at Owen point this morning. There is a small patch of algae about 30 m north of the Owen pt duck blind where it's not frozen and water washes the algae. This is possibly it's only remaining feeding site so please don't approach it closely or flush it from this spot. This bird first appeared on 15 Dec and has been present most days since.
