I can also confirm that there are prairie warblers along the east shore of Georgian Bay.
I visited the Cambrian Trail two weekends ago, on Beausoleil Island, where I heard, then saw, a pair of prairie warblers. Beausoleil Island is part of the Georgian Bay Islands National Park, and is accessable from Honey Harbour by way of the DayTripper shuttle boat, or otherwise by boat, canoe, or kayak. Visitors were once allowed to bring bicycles to the island, now bicycles can be rented from Cedar Springs by the island's south-eastern docks. I was once a camper at Camp Hurontario as well. The Bio Hut inspired my interest in nature and wild species.
