Lagoons.

A fairly good influx of migrants have been found today in the Park. Winds have
switched to a more northerly flow, and it is now sunny.

seen at the lagoons (Wednesday
The Black-necked Stilts were still at Townsend, when I left there at 11:30
this morning( although another report just said they may have left just as I
was leaving). Other birds seen were Eared Grebe, three Wilson's Phalarope,

Cheers Tom
Hi Stephen,
I don't honestly know if the lagoons are open to the public at any
time, because there are no trespassing signs posted.These signs are posted
for obvious safety and other concerns, but since there is no one patrolling
these lagoons that I am aware of, as long as we are
Thanks to George Pond, at 12:30 P.M. today, we found the pair of
Black-Necked Stilt at the Jarvis Sewage Lagoons.
They were first reported at the Townsend Lagoons this morning, but by the
time we arrived they had flown in the direction of the Jarvis Lagoons. The
Eared Grebe was still at
The whimbrel posted yesterday at the Tollgate Ponds was not seen today at
12:30 by myself or 2 other birders who'd been there for awhile. However, the
Wilson's Plover is still there. If you don't see it immediately it may be

If it is found please phone me-- 905-666-3897-- I am beside myself.

My father Mike and I observed the Black-necked Stilts reported at Townsend
Sewage Lagoons at about 2:30 on Wednesday afternoon. The birds were present
in the first cell visible on the path up from the gate, and loitered in the
area for about 20 minutes affording good views. After that, they
Birders,
This evening there was a adult Laughing Gull in the shorebird habitat at
Hillman Marsh. This indivdual may be the same bird I had May 9.
10 Whimbrel were along Hillman Beach late in the evening. I believe it was
the same flock that was on the rocks earlier at Wheatley Harbour.
