Cave Swallows: During the past week, Cave Swallows have been reported in New Jersey, New Brunswick (apparently a first provincial record), Ontario (two reports at Niagara Falls and Tobermory), and an uncertain observation in Michigan (concensus is that the bird was actually a Cliff Swallow).
Lately there has been some unusually warm airflows into Ontario originating from the southwest, the undoubted origin of all or most Cave Swallows. When the weather turns cold during the coming week, I suspect it might be a great time to investigate those areas known to harbour late swallows. Here at Point Pelee, for well over a week now I have seen but a single Tree Swallow, but I'm sure more swallows will appear when this warm weather comes to an abrupt end.
