Good afternoon birders, A few interesting birds have been found today around the park, although most birders are still finding it very slow.
The White-winged Dove was reported again at 17104 Lakeshore Rd. Prothonotary Warbler was seen again on Tulip Tree Trail as well as on Bennett Rd. A Hooded Warbler was at the start of Tulip Tree Trail. White-eyed Vireo was seen in the maintenance loop. A Red-headed Woodpecker was seen near the tennis courts (south of the churches by the traffic circle) Thank you to everyone who contributed sightings and please continue to do so to me through email, or to the Visitor Centre in person or at (519) 674-1768. More information on the park's nature programs and the Friends of Rondeau is available at the Friends' website: www.rondeauprovincialpark.ca.
