This morning's birding was noticeably slower than previous days, however there is still a good diversity of migrants to be found--so as long as one doesn't mind looking up! At least 24 species of warblers have been reported so far today. The Tip was quiet, however an AMERICAN PIPIT was seen by many. A group of four TRUMPETER SWANS were observed flying out over the lake. RED-THROATED LOONS were also observed. An orange variant SCARLET TANAGER was observed around the Tip woods. Woodland Nature Trail had a lot of bird song, with a good selection of warblers. The highlights were PROTHONOTARY WARBLERS at both bridge A and F and a GREEN HERON flew by low through the trees. A YELLOW-THROATED VIREO was observed along the Redbud footpath. A SORA called for some observers on bridge A. Tilden's Woods Trail was also quite birdy, with a BLUE-WINGED WARBLER putting on a good show. There was also a PROTHONOTARY WARBLER along the Shuster Trail. Other miscellaneous sightings around the park include a GOLDEN-WINGED WARBLER at NW Beach, and a MOURNING WARBLER between Sleepy Hollow and Dunes. Outside the park, a number of shorebirds have been reported along Mersey Road 21 near Hillman Marsh. -- Good Birding, Alan Watson, Aaron Brisebois, Chris Earley, Dale Wenger, Dana Latour, Emma Burbidge, Eric Baldo, Gabriel Foley, Jean Iron, Justin Peter, Kyle Horner, Mike Kent, Pete Read, Quinten Wiegersma, Stewart MacDonald, Tim Arthur, William Konze The 2024 Festival of Birds runs May 1 - 22.
