I'm sure that many interesting migrants have shown up across York Region this weekend, but since they haven't been posted, here are some York arrivals since Friday evening:
At "old Bathurst" in southwest Newmarket yesterday afternoon: BLACK & WHITE WARBLER (6), BLACK-THR. GREEN (8-10), NASHVILLE (2), PINE (2), as well as BLUE-HEADED VIREO (2), RUBY-CROWNED KINGLET (25+), BROWN CREEPER (8-10). These birds were feeding along the sandy corridor that runs parallel to and just west of Bathurst. The trail entry is a small path leading straight west from the west side of Bathurst, just north of Mulock Drive. At McKenzie Marsh in north Aurora this morning: COMMON MOORHEN (1), PIED-BILLED GREBE (2). McKenzie Marsh is about 1 km east of Yonge Street on St. John's Sideroad in Aurora. At the water retention pond behind Silver City, Newmarket this afternoon: CASPIAN TERN (2), SPOTTED SANDPIPER (2). (Thanks to Nigel Shaw for mentioning this spot to me.) This pond is on the eastern boundary of the Silver City property, just southeast of Yonge Street and Green Lane. Ron Fleming, Newmarket "Ronald J.
