Ergodic orbits accumulate on the support of a restricted measure

For a countable ergodic group action, almost every orbit meets every positive-measure set. Applying this to a countable topological basis shows that the orbit's visits to a measurable set accumulate on the support of the restricted measure. This is the orbit-density step of EKL (2006), Proposition 4.3.

    The saturation of a positive-measure set is conull in an ergodic action.

    Almost every orbit's visits to K accumulate on the entire support of the restricted measure; no closedness assumption on K is needed.
