At Humber Bay East I saw American Wigeon:

Thanks Palo.  Yeah sometimes it is just pure luck.  Really happy with these finds.  I'm hoping that I'll still get a chance to see the Western Grebe and the Harlequins.

Got much better lighting today when I photographed American Wigeons at Sam Smith and HB East
