I have been able to drop in at the Windsor Sewage Ponds twice this week while en-route to other things. The numbers are considerable. Both visits were relatively short, at about 2pm. The first on Tuesday 21 October and the second today, 23rd Oct. 21 Oct 23 Oct Canada Geese 150 85 Black Ducks 65 113 Herring Gulls 200 200+ GBB Gulls 18 35 Green Winged Teal 15 8 Blue Winged Teal 2 2 American Wigeon 18 12 Black Bellied Plovers 6 2 Yellowlegs? 6 0 Of interest is that on both occasions at least 4 of the male American Wigeons sported a clearly quite bright yellow forehead, unlike the white or buffy colour seen in the textbooks. They are otherwise normal American Wigeons. Could they be hybrids? John Belbin- Hantsport
