Kingston Area Birds 22 June 2024 – 28 June 2024
Kingston Field Naturalists (KFN) maintain records in a 50km radius of
MacDonald Park, Kingston. Birders using eBird are encouraged to share their
sightings with ‘Kingston FN’. Alternatively, please email records directly
to me – contact details below. Please note that some sightings may require
review and remain unconfirmed unless stated otherwise. Species in bold type
require completion of a rare bird report available on the KFN website or
directly from me. If indicated, an OBRC report may be required instead (
http://www.ofo.ca/site/Obrcreport). Some iPhone users report that bold type
may be replaced by asterisks.
Overview: A quiet week overall, but still a few good sightings,
highlighted by an American White Pelican at Prince Edward Point NWA.
*Parish Notes: *This will be the last report of the summer unless
something very rare shows up. I do need to make time for family. I will
resume near the end of summer once migration starts up again.
Please note the new email address at the bottom of the report that can be
used to submit observations if you are not using eBird.
