Make sure you try Hall's Road, just 500m west of the Lynde Shores parking lot. It's amazing what can be seen sometimes down this little stretch of road.
Thickson's Woods is just to the east a bit.
The mudflats of Frenchman's Bay can be reached from the parking lot of Daycare Center on Bayly.
Corner Marsh/Rotary Park, go south on Westney, then west when you hit the lake. You'll see the parking lot. The areas along the waterfront, west across the bridge is good for gulls, shorebirds, songbirds etc.
