Today there were Tony and Nina, Jeanine (new), Lena, Al, Ron and myself. We met at Petrie Island, birded a short time, then car-pooled to Alfred Lagoons. I went with the ever-generous Al.
We had a Common Moorhen spotted by Al. In fact there were three. The name has recently been changed to Common Gallinule.
Al thought he had an American Bittern. We had a Wilson's Snip along Hwy 17.
The Alfred Lagoons provided good spotting of many duck species and coots, reminiscent of the prairies.
