I had a nice start to the fall pelagic season at the west end of Lake
Ontario today. Shortly after noon, I had a juvenile Sabine's Gull off
Van Wagners Beach. The bird landed on the water a fair distance out and
was not re-seen during the short time I was there. The winds are brisk
out of the NE
A couple of pleasant hours at the Holland Landing lagoons this morning Aug. 24
were highlighted by a Marbled Godwit in adult non-breeding plumage. I last saw
the bird flying from lagoon 2 to lagoon 4 as I was leaving at 12 noon, although
it had spent most of the preceding two hours in lagoon 1.

Birders,
Thought it would be of interest that there was a Blackburian Warbler in the
wooded lot at the north-west corner of Beatrice Street and Wilson Road in
Oshawa, along with several Red-Eye Vireos, Magnolias, and a Black-Throated Blue.
