Birders,
In contrast to Pelee the birding was fairly good in
Windsor. Possibly, overnight showers knocked down
birds flying against an east wind. (On April 28 I
had a Baltimore Oriole at the Ont. Prov. Prairie Res.,
and on April 29, a Sora was calling from the pond at
Springarden.)
Species on April 30 were:
Devon Wood - Fox Sparrow
Y. B. Sapsucker
Oakwood - Rose-br. Grosbeak
Least Flycatcher
Nashville 12
Blue-headed Vireo 2
SpringGarden - E. Kingbird 1
Black-thr. Green 1
Greater Yellowlegs 1
Malden Park - Spotted Sandpiper 1
Chimney Swift 2
Nashville 9
Palm 1
Ojibway Nat. Centre - Black-thr. Blue 1
Yellow Warb. 2
Pine Warbler 2
N. Waterthrush 1
Yellowrumped 78
