Hi there, Today (4 May) at 1045 hrs, I heard and observed a Yellow-throated Vireo during my hike at Meisel Woods Conservation Area. It was singing from some oaks along the perimeter of the conservation area on North Anderson Rd. roughly 50 m S of the main parking lot. A male Black-throated Blue Warbler and a single Least Flycatcher were also present in the C.A. (among many other landbird migrants). Earlier in the day I surveyed Perth Wildlife Reserve and tallied 55 species. Highlights include: 9 species of warbler, a small flock of Rusty Blackbirds, and a single Wood Thrush, Great Crested Flycatcher, and Rose-breasted Grosbeak.
