Hi all, This morning, in the same woodlot where the least bittern was located yesterday, my colleague, Herman VanBarneveld, viewed a fox sparrow, 2 hermit thrushes, and a palm warbler. Yesterday there was also a female yellow-bellied sapsucker. The least bittern is no longer present.
Directions: The woodlot is located here (http://tinyurl.com/2cxae6). It's behind the large church (Bethel Gospel Tabernacle) on Upper Wellington just north of Stone Church Road. We do have tentative permission to park from the facilities manager, but *please* be respectful, and no large groups. He has my email address and promised to write if there were any problems. If you're coming from out of town, take the Upper Wentworth exit off of the Linc. Head south. Turn right on Stone Church and then right on Upper Wellington. Bethel Gospel Tabernacle is located on the right and the forest is at the very back.
