While many of the Killdeers that
arrived this week appear to have headed back south, however a Wilson's
Snipe was seen at Con 1 and Main St, making three species of shorebird
seen this year in the Long Point area. Other good birds seen over the
last week include a Tree Swallow seen at the back of Bird Studies Canada on Tuesday and a Northern Shrike seen north of Clear Creek the
same day. American Kestrels and Merlins showed up this week, as well
as the first migrant flock of Sandhill Cranes seen, in addition to the
many family groups seen west of Port Royal.
