I am watching a Western Grebe feeding at the mouth of the Credit River in Mississauga. Take Mississauga Rd. south from Lakeshore, and park in J. C. Saddington Park at the end. Walk east to the river, where the grebe is currently feeding in front of the big barge. Reuven Martin

The bird is still present.

I just saw the WEGR a few minutes ago but it has disappeared behind the barge at the moment. It has been doing this off and on and we are waiting for it to reappear.

Bird is nicely in view, appears to be sleeping, scope necessary.

Hi folks... FYI The Western Grebe is still here as of 4:12 PM.. Since Reuven Martin Found it this morning and my seeing it at 11:07 AM, it has been seen for most of the day to the left and behind the Rusty Boat Barge moored to the east of the Port Credit Harbour. At times it goes behind the barge and is not visible. Best viewing, because of better light, was this afternoon. At least 50 birders/ photographers have seen it. Other birds. Around.....Port Credit Harbour Tree Swallows DC Cormorants BLUE-winged Teals All new birds for the year ..,...for Peel And many Horned Grebes, a few Red- necked Grebes, 3 Common Loons, Peregrine Falcon..., Carolina Wren, .etc ....etc.. Hoping that tomorrow the Western Grebe is still here, since I am Leading a bird Hike at Sadddington Park, sponsored by The Riverwood Conservancy, and The IBA waterbirds count is on tomorrow. The WEGR would be a nice addition to to the IBAcount. Best of luck...for directions see below or earlier emails Luc Fazio Sent from my iPad Begin forwarded message: > From: Joanne Redwood <jem.redwood@live.ca> > Date: March 25, 2016 at 2:04:37 PM EDT > To: Richard Poort <richard.poort@gmail.com> > Cc: Hamilton Birders <hamiltonbirds@googlegroups.com>, ONTBIRDS <birdalert@ontbirds.ca> > Subject: Re: [Ontbirds] [hamiltonbirds] Western Grebe Mississauga > > Bird is nicely in view, appears to be sleeping, scope necessary. > > Sent from my iPhone > >> On Mar 25, 2016, at 1:49 PM, Joanne Redwood <jem.redwood@live.ca> wrote: >> >> I just saw the WEGR a few minutes ago but it has disappeared behind the barge at the moment.
