Yesterday Friday, Sept 7th Bob Tyler, Margaret Liubavicius and I again birded Ward’s Island and the western end of Algonquin Island and following are some of the birds we found.
Great Egret, 3 Ospreys overhead, 5 flycatcher species, 3 vireo species including Philadelphia, Brown Creeper, both Nuthatches, House Wrens, Hummingbirds, Red-breasted Grosbeaks, Scarlet Tanagers, an adult male Dark-eyed Junco and 11 species of warblers including a female Connecticut Warbler in the area we call The Trap just SE of the Island Church. Not a big number of each species but enough to make us happy.
