Howard Shapiro discovered a somewhat cooperative Connecticut Warbler earlier today just northwest of the main “Wet Woods” at the base of Tommy Thompson Park (“TTP”)in Toronto.
The precise location is a bit difficult to describe, but anyone interested in looking for the bird should look for thicket almost directly underneath a stand of cottonwood trees, about halfway NW of the main Wet Woods (aka the TTP Baselands), and SE of the bend in Unwin Avenue where it swings back E/W after turning N/S. The bird is in a relatively small thicket and has remained there since Howard discovered it earlier today. As the only other landmark I can offer, there’s an old white patio chair located about 5m east of the thicket. Patience is required, and if you go, please be respectful of both the bird itself, and any other birders who may be present or may come to look later on today. Tommy Thompson Park is located at the intersection of Leslie Street and Unwin Avenue in Toronto.
