The Rock Wren was seen at the same location as Ken's previous post around 5:45 this evening. It was very accomodating and hopping around the largest mound of rocks on boulder beach.
Bruce Peninsula National Park was very busy and getting a parking spot near the grotto was tricky. For anyone planning to try for it tomorrow I would recommend going early to try and beat the crowds. Directions as per Ken Burrell.
