Kingston Area Birds 1 June 2024 – 7 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 for rarities this week, but it doesn’t mean they
aren’t out there.  With the BioBlitz coming up at the end of this coming
week we will keep our fingers crossed.

*Parish Notes:  *Sorry for the delay in getting this out, I participated in
the Dawn Chorus Walk yesterday and had a birthday party to attend right
afterwards.

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.
