Just quick up-date here. No Whimbrels were seen yesterday and none today until 4:24 pm when 8 were seen flying at about 1000' heading northwest ... presumably the same group of 8 came from the nw and circled low over the point then headed back nw at 4:55. Observations today halted at 6:00 pm. The watch will continue daily to 30 May. Based past history this monday, 24 May, will be most likely day with largest numbers ... this can vary up to a day or two or more on each side of that date. There was still a descent assortment of warblers in the park today, all seen between 6:00 and 7:30 pm: Bay-breasted, Blackburnian, Back-and-white, Yellow, Canada, Magnolia, Canada, Yellow-rumped, Black-throated Green, Black-throated Blue and Wilson's.
Directions: The park is located at the south end Kipling past Lakeshore Boulevard. The parking lot is at very end of road through Humber Lakeshore Campus and park.
