Having been too late for a few recent rarities, we made haste to see this mega rarity (first time in Ottawa, ever). We drove to the bridge on Frank Kenny Road where a few other birders had their scopes out. We saw a total of 3 stilts, very distant scope views. They were too far for any reasonable photos. Apparently, they moved close to the road after we left. We did not see the GWFG that were reported later. Either we missed them, or they were not present.
We left and went over to Milton Road in search of Sandhill Cranes. We did not see any, but the Common Ravens at the silo had babies in the nest.
It was a successful outing. A chance for photos would have been nice.😊
