Good morning birders, Although activity is dropping rapidly in the hot weather, the birding has been good this morning at Rondeau.
At least one Prothonotary Warbler has been seen at the back of Tulip Tree Trail (post 7,8,9). An Acadian Flycatcher was reported in the same area. Reports from the maintenance area include Hooded Warbler as well as early Mourning and Canada Warblers. The Kentucky Warbler on Spicebush Trail was seen last evening and may still be present. Thank you to everyone who contributed sightings and please continue to do so at the Visitor Centre or to me through email. eBird users submitting checklists from the park are encouraged to share them with the username "RondeauPPVisitorCentre" for our records. More information on the park's nature programs and the Friends of Rondeau is available at the Friends' website: www.rondeauprovincialpark.ca.
