Hey Birders,
Posting for Nathan Miller.
Nathan observed a 'nice' Yellow-headed Blackbird this afternoon (14:30hrs) at
the corner of Concession 3 and Gracey Sideroad, about 3km NW of Tilbury. The
bird was in a large flock of E. Starlings and BH Cowbirds. This is likely a
local bird from adjacent Lake St. Clair.
Nathan also had a single Long-billed Dowitcher at the Pelee Days Inn.
Directions: travelling west on the 401, exit @ Reg. Road 42. Go west on 42 one
road (Gracey Sideroad), turn right, continue to Concession 3. The bird is
likely moving around with the large flock of 'blackbirds'. My guess would be to
drive the roads in the vicinity and scan the large flocks for it.
Good Birding,
Ken Burrell
Waterloo, ON
