Rondeau Daily Report May14/04 The morning at Rondeau was one of the quietest this month, yet some good birds were found An Acadian Flycatcher was singing on Harrison Road just north of the Visitor Centre, a Kentucky Warbler was on the Tulip Tree Trail and a Yellow- throated Warbler (possibly 2) was singing from tall pines at South Point. They remained in their respective positions well into the afternoon though the Kentucky was quiet and not seen by most visitors.
After a short rain at 10am the birds became much livelier, and most of the common warblers were tallied from Yellow-rump to Blackpoll with 24 species in total by days end. Blackburnian and Tennessee may have been the most common warblers today. Of the more common birds, Indigo Buntings, rather scarce before Wednesday, are now being seen regularly. Also seen today were all the Brown Thrushes except the Hermit. Black and Yellow-billed Cuckoos were also present in various locations, though they remain quiet for the most part. The Friends of Rondeau are sponsoring two guided hikes daily until May 23rd.
