Hello Birders! Well, today felt a lot more like a typical April day here at Point Pelee National Park. While there was certainly an interesting variety of species in the park again today, it certainly wasn't as hopping as earlier in the the week. with this rainy, windy weather.
A female Prothonotary Warbler was present at the Tip this morning. In Post Woods this afternoon, both Worm-eating and Blue-winged Warbler were present and provided excellent viewing opportunities. A walk along the West Beach Footpath produced a Tufted Titmouse this afternoon. During the rain, many sparrows were frequenting the Red Cedar Savannah area just outside the Visitor Centre. A good variety of species were present, including a Grasshopper Sparrow. Another Worm-eating Warbler was found in the northeast corner of the Tildens Woods trail and a Louisana Waterthrush was found along the bridge. No reports today of the Kentucky Warbler that had been present the last two days. At the time of this post, I haven't received any reports from Hillman Marsh. Good Birding everyone!
