This didn't go out yesterday, as I had apparently unsubscribed (years ago) and 
forgotten I had done so. Oh, goofy me...

Just note that this info is now a day old.

While searching for the resolutely elusive Brown Booby on Lake Erie today (and 
blithely driving right past the newly-discovered Cattle Egret!) we stopped in 
at Rock Point Provincial Park. There, we came across a gem of a November bird, 
a female Northern Parula. She was foraging with a small flock of Golden-crowned 
Kinglets, in the large trees along the slope immediately to the SE of the 
viewing platform, and was visible for some minutes.
To reach Rock Point P.P., take the North Shore Rd. of Dunnville, heading 
south-east. Take a right at Neice Rd. to the first left, which is Downey Rd. 
Drive to the end of Downey, where you will find a small parking area; walk in 
at the "notice to hunters" sign (note that the park is officially closed at the 
moment.) Bear left slightly, into the campground;  the viewing platform is high 
on the dune between the wooded section of campground and the lake.
