Good morning birders! Today was overcast but there was still a slight SW wind. This seemed to allow for a good Reverse Movement of birds off the Tip which continued for a number of hours. Birds involved included many orioles, and some warbler species. A few RED-HEADED WOODPECKER, SCARLET TANAGER, 2 NORTHERN MOCKINGBIRD, BOBOLINK, CANADA WARBLER, BLACKPOLL WARBLER, and so on. Also noted on the Tip were a BLUE-WINGED WARBLER, and INDIGO BUNTING. Our wood warbler total so far today is 26 species. Up along West Beach Trail towards half-way to the half-way stop, opposite to the Sparrow Field, a number of birds were noted including GRASSHOPPER SPARROW, PRAIRIE WARBLER, CERULEAN WARBLER and ACADIAN FLYCATCHER. Also seen either along that path or near the Tip, another ACADIAN FLYCATCHER was seen and heard calling and a number of YELLOW-BELLIED FLYCATCHERS were seen. Moving north into Woodland Nature Trail, birders reported good activity including PROTHONOTARY WARBLER, CANADA WARBLER, NORTHERN WATERTHRUSH, and WHITE-EYED VIREO. We did hear of a YELLOW-BILLED CUCKOO up at the Madbin Jina picnic area across from DeLaurier. A YELLOW-BREASTED CHAT was noted in the Cemetery. We have not heard of any recent reports from Hillman Marsh. Good Birding, Friends of Point Pelee Hike Leaders, including William Konze, Tim Arthur, Emma Burbidge, Pete Read, Dana Latour, and Aaron Brisebois. -- The Festival of Birds is brought to you by Parks Canada and the Friends of Point Pelee.
