This is a late post for Scott Janex of Michigan. I just recieved a call from Scott Janex, and he has reported to have seen the Western Greeb and the Pacific Loon at 50 Point yesterday (Sunday, November 14th.) around 1pm.
As well he has also reported the Black-necked Stilt and Hudsonian Godwit at the Ridgetown sewage lagoons at 7:10am (Nov. 14th.) As a side note, I was informed that some viewers of the Black-necked Stilt photos (see www.stevepike.com , RARITIES link) were not loading up on slower 56k and 128k dial-up connections. I have now fixed this technical problem and the photos are available for all. ...the site is best viewed at a 1024 x 768 screen resolution at a 32 bit color quality. Cheers, Steve Pike. Directions to Fifty Point C.A.... Take QEW Niagara to Fifty Road. Head toward the lake and take the North Service Road around to the first road which branches off left (sorry forgot the name). There is a sign here pointing to the Conservation Area. Enter the Fifty Point C.A. (there is a $5.00 charge) and follow signs to the marina or go to viewing points out on the east side of the park. You may also park at the end of Kelson Road and walk down to the beach. The bird has been seen between the marina and the DND property about 150 m out. Be patient, sometimes it disappears. Directions to Ridgetown sewage lagoons... Ridgetown is a few miles N/E of Rondeau P.P. At the only traffic light in Ridgetown, turn North on Erie St.----go about 10 short blocks---just before the Railroad tracks and the large Fertilizer plant turn left on Mitton Line. The lagoons are just a bit down the road-----you will see the viewing stand. YOU CAN NOT ENTER these lagoons. Viewing is good from the stand. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
