Good morning birders, The rain overnight was welcome and as things dried up this morning there was a lot of activity at the Tip. An ACADIAN FLYCATCHER was noted coming in off the lake and actively feeding at the Tip. Also seen at the Tip, a SUMMER TANAGER was reported. A lot of wood warblers and vireos were quite actively feeding in the woods near the Tip including NORTHERN PARULA, BLACK-THROATED BLUE, WILSON'S, CAPE MAY, several PHILADELPHIA VIREOS, and others. At the Tip early for the second day an adult LAUGHING GULL was on the sand. The continuing MISSISSIPPI KITE was seen from the Visitor Center this morning as well. We've heard good reports of both the Tilden, and the Woodland Nature Trail being quite active as well with BLACKPOLL WARBLERS, and several continuing PROTHONOTARY WARBLERS. Good birding from your Friends of Point Pelee hike leaders Pete Read, Tim Arthur, and Steve Pike! -- The Festival of Birds is brought to you by Parks Canada and the Friends of Point Pelee.
