An evening walk with the Carden Field Naturalists found singing SEDGE WRENS in Sedge Wren Marsh, a welcome return after last year's absence. A COMMON NIGHTHAWK was seen above the marsh, and GOLDEN-WINGED WARBLER heard just at the south edge of the wetland. Also a SOLITARY SANDPIPER and many of the usual suspects. No sign of Yellow Rail.
Sedge Wren Marsh is 4 km north on Wylie Road in the heart of the Carden Alvar, directly north of the Kirkfield Lift Lock. To experience the best of the Carden Alvar and its birds, register now for the Carden Nature Festival, June 7 & 8. www.cardennaturefestival.ca. _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
