Greetings! It was a nice day today at the Arboretum. In the valley there were some Orange Crowned Warblers along with a very cooperative Mockingbird.
The usual White Throated and White Crowned Sparrows and a lone Fox Sparrow were also present. By the feeders were many Purple Finches, House Finches, Juncos, and a pair of Blue Jays. In the pines were a flock of Thrushes: perhaps a Grey Cheeked. The Arboretum is behind Humber College at Finch and Humber College Blvd. Go to the 427 and Finch: head east to Humber College Blvd and turn right. Enter the College and by the main parking office you can get a permit to park by the Arboretum. There are four parking spots by the Arboretum but they are often full.
