Ontbirders, I’m currently looking at 8 Avocets on lagoon 1 at the Holland Landing Sewage Lagoons. A short time ago at least 14 flushed along with Mallards, but 8 have returned, To get to the Lagoons, take Hwy 404 to Queensville Sdrd, drive west until reaching Yonge St, then turn south to Cedar Street. The lagoons areat the east end of Cedar

A word of caution. If gates are open or workers are present, DO NOT go into the lagoons. > ---------- Original Message ---------- > From: Steve Kinsley via ONTBIRDS <birdalert@ontbirds.ca> > To: birdalert@ontbirds.ca > Date: October 24, 2019 at 12:52 PM > Subject: [Ontbirds] Avocets at Holland Landing Sewage Lagoons > > Ontbirders, I’m currently looking at 8 Avocets on lagoon 1 at the Holland > Landing Sewage Lagoons.

Ontbirders, Not to discourage anyone but entrance to these lagoons is not permitted at any time to the public. From personal experience these lagoons are patrolled regularly, and if you encounter a Region of York employee you will be asked to leave. Remember the OFO Code of Ethics.

Folks, Bruce Brydon reports that at least 6 of the American Avocets remain at the Holland Landing Sewage Lagoons as of 7:30am this morning. Good luck if you go. DIRECTIONS: To get to the Lagoons, take Hwy 404 to Queensville Sdrd, drive west until reaching Yonge St, then turn south to Cedar Street. The lagoons are at the east end of Cedar.
