This morning at Britannia Conservation Area/Mud Lake, there were no less than 3 BLACKPOLL WARBLERS singing in the canopies. I visually located two of them; the third was too well hidden in all the leaves. There were located near the ridge-side entrance on Cassels Road, one at the small pine grove near the end of the ridge, and the last one near the water treatment plant. About 20 CEDAR WAXWINGS were also present, which made locating the singing blackpolls a lot more interesting. Lastly, E. WOOD-PEWEES are back on territory finally in the Britannia woods - about three were present that I could find. Looks like we're in for some rain for awhile...good birding nonetheless!
