Weekly report from the Cabot Head Research Station of the Bruce Peninsula
Bird Observatory
(September 23rd - 29th)
Fall started with typical fall weather : we had lots wind, rain and overcat
conditions during the week. Consequently, we lost many net-hours but some
days were very good for banding. Black-capped Chickadees are still numerous,
but we also had a good move of Myrtle Warblers and of Golden-crowned
Kinglets the 27th. Two Blue-gray Gnatcatchers were seen the same day.
Sparrows are also moving through, mostly White-throated and White-crowned.
On the Bay, White-winged Scoters are seen more regularly.
Cabot Head Research Station is located near DyerÂ’s Bay, on the Bruce
Peninsula. Acces to the station is limited. Please contact us for a visit.
Bruce Peninsula Bird Observatory is a charitable non-profit group dedicated
to the conservation and study of birds and their habitats on the Bruce
Peninsula. For more information about BPBO and volunteer opportunities at
