Festival of Birds
Fri, May 15, 2026 3:53 PM

Good morning birdwatchers,

A sunny calm morning after a second consecutive night of North winds is
displaying many of the same birds in the park. At the Tip, two RED-THROATED
LOONS and an ACADIAN FLYCATCHER were note worthy. A GOLDEN-WINGED WARBLER
was seen in Post Woods with a SUMMER TANAGER being reported North of there
on the Woodland Trail. On Chinquapin Oak Trail, a CANADA WARBLER continues
and a HOODED WARBLER was also seen. A SUMMER TANAGER was reported at
Sanctuary.

Overall things are fairly birdy with most things singing from the treetops.
Roughly 22 species of Warblers have been reported this morning.

Good birding,
Pete, Julie, Max, Felix, Aaron, Mark
