Hi all, This morning I observed a strange event. A juvenile intermediate morph Parasitic Jaeger flew from somewhere off the lake and circled over the woods and out of sight about 8 a.m., heading westward. I had wonderful looks at it, leaving no question as to identity. I was on the edge of the east beach at the light beacon on south point trail. Jaegers are rarely observed at Rondeau, so that in itself is significant. Warblers were light in numbers this weekend at the park. This morning there was an endless stream of gulls and terns along the shoreline of the park. They were constantly moving westward, numbering tens of thousands. I watched for a while, but did not see any rarities.
Rondeau Provincial Park is in Chatham-Kent at the south end of CK Rd. 15. Blake. ************************ The Mann's Wallaceburg, Chatham-Kent, Ont. boatmann AT kent DOT net
