Hi,
We are about to start a study (Master thesis/ U. Waterloo) with Yellow-breasted Chat at Point Pelee National Park and would like to know if birders from nearby areas would like to share any information on this species or suitable habitat may be out there. We know Pelee is one of the primary sites for this species to occur and to breed, but you guys are everywhere and any information on this species AND associated shruby bird species (White-eyed Vireo for example) and its habitat will help us to understand better habitat needs (type, age, amount, configuration, disturbance cycles) and restoration or management implications in a more comprehensive manner. I have visited some sites in Illinois and it is very interesting to see habitat similarities with Pelee. Looking forward to hear something about it, please receive my anticipated thanks.
