This morning (April 24), Pat Hare photographed a Phylloscopus warbler in Mississauga in the area of Hwy 403 and Mississauga Rd. It looks good for Yellow-browed Warbler but I'm FAR from an expert on this difficult group. Hopefully someone will post more information if more details become available. Mike Burrell

Update: the exact location where the bird was seen/photographed was 43.558117, -79.686342 (https://goo.gl/maps/AJRp5efzc9mAKH5A6) at the back of Shalebank Hollow Park in Mississauga. For those wondering, the photos are posted on the Bird ID Discussion of the Ontario Birds Discord Server.

The bird is still present (1:15 pm) as is a crowd of birders, wondering when the police will show up. Wear a mask!  Many photos by now (I even got a few). Beware of Ruby-crowned Kjnglets in the immediate vicinity! Ronald Orenstein 1825 Shady Creek Court Mississauga, ON L5L 3W2 Canada ronorenstein.blogspot.com On Apr 24, 2021, 12:40 PM -0400, Mike V.A.
