A triple whammy of birds seen this morning in this amazingly small radius of High Park.
This morning at 11:35 a.m. while searching for the White-eyed Vireo, Rob Dobos spotted the Black-throated Gray Warbler also seen by myself, Dave Don and Maris Apse. The bird was in with a flock of chickadees in some Austrian Pines just at the top of the stairway leading down to Grenadier Pond on Colbourne Lodge Road. The bird was seen here and then it flew down to some other tall pines about 100 ft down the road where we refound it. It flew out of here across the road and down into the valley near Grenadier Pond. It stayed with this flock of chicadees so I would look for those in the pines to start. While looking for it down near the stairway to the pond, the White-eyed Vireo popped out for an appearance. The Wilson's Warbler is also still present, seen today at 10:30 a.m. near the Lower Duck Pond in the southeast corner of the park. What a great day!!! Cheers, Cheryl Edgecombe High Park is found on the west side of Toronto off Parkside Drive or Bloor St , to find this where the Black-throated Gray Warbler and White-eyed Vireo is you must go through the park along Colbourne Lodge dr. which runs off of Lakeshore Road and park and walk up to where the stairs leading to Grenadier Pond. The Wilson's Warbler can be seen in the area just off a parking lot accessed from Parkside Drive at Spring Road.
