Further to the post below, the bird is back in the area. Lynne Freeman and I saw it around 3:15 today. While walking on the road on the north side of the railbed and checking the fence line, suddenly we saw it on the road itself just a few feet away from us, and then it moved into the grass. Great looks.
Directions - lakeshore and Don Roadway. Park on Villiers. Walk north just past Lakeshore and turn right on the first dirt road/track. Bird is about 200 metres east of Don Roadway. Please be careful crossing Lakeshore.
