Pond one has lower water and it looks like this is the pond they are actually draining. It is the same one they worked on a few years ago. Since it is right by the birder's gate, it will be interesting to see if we get access at all on weekends after Labour Day.
A number of shorebirds were around the edge of pond 1. Nothing of note. However, we are up to 4 Wilson's and 2 Red-necked Phalaropes swimming in that pond. They stick together, so not difficult to locate.
Quite a few mallards, or mallard-like ducks were in pond 3. Looked like a couple of the Lighthouse Cove ducks were there! One was all white.
Lots of yellowlegs were flying around.
The only grebe was Pied-billed. It would be nice for an Eared Grebe to show. One was at Strathroy a couple of days ago.
