Good morning birders!
We had another fine sunny day at the Point, and many people enjoyed a number of interesting sightings so far today. The winds were not great for a Reverse Movement but a LEAST BITTERN found its way into a cedar near the Tip. Also noted was a PRAIRIE WARBLER near the winter parking area on the Tram Loop. Woodland Nature Trail, there were WHITE-EYED VIREO, PROTHONOTARY WARBLER. NORTHERN PARULA, YELLOW-BELLIED FLYCATCHER, YELLOW-BILLED CUCKOO and many other warblers and other small birds. On Redbud Trail birders found KENTUCKY, GOLDEN-WINGED and CANADA WARBLER. Several reports have come in of CERULEAN WARBLER from DeLaurier, Northwest Beach, and Tilden Wood. Also noted in Northwest Beach along the footpath south from along the roadway, MOURNING and CANADA WARBLER. Good Birding, Friends of Point Pelee Hike Leaders, including William Konze, Tim Arthur, Emma Burbidge, Pete Read, Dana Latour, Aaron Brisebois and Jeff Skevington. -- The Festival of Birds is brought to you by Parks Canada and the Friends of Point Pelee.
