I was pleasantly surprised to find a BOREAL CHICKADEE in Bruce Peninsula National Park this afternoon. The bird was along the Bruce Trail between the Grotto and Marr Lake area, accessible from the Cyprus Lake access. Boreal Chickadees are not resident on the Bruce Peninsula and are very rarely found here. In other local birding news, there are decent numbers of waterbirds around the upper Bruce Peninsula, including RED-NECKED GREBES, COMMON LOONS, WHITE-WINGED SCOTERS, RING-NECKED DUCKS and HOODED MERGANSERS. Feeders in Tobermory have been inundated with flocks of AMERICAN GOLDFINCHES and PINE SISKINS. A few EVENING GROSBEAKS and COMMON REDPOLLS have also shown up in the past couple days. Directions: Take Highway 6 north up the Bruce Peninsula. Tobermory is at the end of the road. The Cyprus Lake turnoff for Bruce Peninsula National Park is 12km south of Tobermory. Happy birding!
