Good morning birders!
The sun greeted enthusiastic crowds this morning at Point Pelee, as did a few new arrivals. A PRAIRIE WARBLER was seen at the tip, but just like yesterday, most of the action was at Woodland Nature Trail. Yesterday's LOUISIANA WATERTHRUSH sneakily continued on the north loop, seen only by patient birders. The continuing WORM-EATING WARBLER was also elusive, providing only a few looks. On the Woodland Nature Trail, PROTHONOTARY WARBLERS showed in a few locations, and a HOODED WARBLER impressed viewers by bridge F. A KENTUCKY WARBLER was briefly seen at the intersection of Woodland Nature Trail and Redbud Footpath. A WHITE-EYED VIREO and BLUE-WINGED WARBLER also popped up sporadically on Woodland Nature Trail. Good Birding!
