Good views of the adult male Barrow’s goldeneye today in the southeast corner of
Carruthers Creek Marsh in Ajax.

I also found a Presto card on the beach, which I will drop off with the TTC.
They can scan it and determine whose it is and get it back to the owner.

Take the Salem Road exit from the 401, drive south to Victoria Street and turn
left. Turn right at Shoal Point Road, left on Ashbury Boulevard, and right on
Audley Road South. Park somewhere east of the small pond, then follow the fence
west along the cliff edge to where it drops off to the beach. The trail to the
barrier beach will become apparent there.
