After unsuccessfully attempting to relocate a Black-and-white Warbler
that was found on yesterday's CBC in Toronto, I was able to easily
relocate the White-eyed Vireo we found yesterday on Toronto Island.
The Vireo is a bright 1st winter bird. It was quiet but actively
feeding and very visible. It was found the tee of Frisbee Golf Hole #2.
I balanced a broken blue disc at the base of a light standard along the
road. This is approximately 100 m west (NOT east as reported yesterday)
of the Island Fire Station The fire station is west of the Ward Island
terminal and west of the bridge to Algonquin Island. I tried to get
photos but could be hard pressed to call one a record shot.
Toronto (Wards) Island is accessed by ferry (round-trip fare $7) at the
base of Bay St. A ferry schedule can be found at http://tinyurl.com/mpe8prp
***** I just heard that an other birder relocated the Black-and-white
Warbler. No details except that it was in a Russian Olive Tree. Hope
someone posts directions. ***********
