Good morning birders, It can take some work to find them, but there are quite a lot of birds to see in Rondeau today It was very quiet early this morning but as it warms activity is increasing.
The Cerulean and Hooded Warbler continue at the Maintenance Loop. Tulip Tree Trail was quite busy this morning, with Cerulean Warbler, Yellow-throated and Philadelphia Vireo, Blue-winged and Bay-breasted Warbler, Northern Parula and Scarlet Tanager. Spicebush trail has a number of birds including Blackpoll Warbler. Orange-crowned Warbler was a highlight on South Point Trail.
