A White-faced Ibis was found this morning by Adam Timpf along concession 2 west of Hwy 59 in Norfolk County on the north side of the road. It was in small wetlands on properties being restored by the Nature Conservancy of Canada - (42.6179940,-80.5418040). The bird was last observed flying east about 1245. It likely settled in small wetlands on adjacent properties. Photos can be seen shortly on the LPBO sightings board, http://www.birdscanada.org/longpoint/index.jsp?targetpg=lpbosight, or on my eBird checklist here - https://ebird.org/canada/view/checklist/S46211611 Good birding, Stu ____________________ > On Jun 1, 2018, at 11:17, Stu Mackenzie <stu.a.mackenzie@gmail.com> wrote: > > The Long Point Bird Observatory sightings board is updated to June 1 - this one in particular is worth a look http://www.birdscanada.org/longpoint/index.jsp?targetpg=lpbosight > > Highlights for this period include: Pacific Loon, Piping Plover, Virginia’s Warbler, Western Tanager, Summer Tanager, and Eurasian Tree Sparrow. > > If you enjoy these updates, please consider supporting the LPBO Cygnus Crusaders in the Great Canadian Birdathon - https://www.canadahelps.org/s/2rUhN.
