Richmond Hill Millpond...

I seldom see shorebirds at the Richmond Hill Millpond, but this sandpiper, along with two others caught my eye this past Sunday.  I think they were Solitary Sandpipers.

There is just one Mute Swan at the millpond now, but it is a favourite photographic subject.

Above, one of the numerous female Mallards is seen grooming, a never-ending job for a duck.   Below is a juvenile Double-Crested Cormorant.   The Double-Cresteds are widespread in eastern North American and are seen regularly now at the Richmond Hill Millpond. 

The Richmond Hill Millpond is a popular spot with many people

relaxing on its banks.
