Good Morning Birders, To my knowledge, the Kirtland's Warbler was not seen after the original sighting.
It is a busy morning in the park with more of the later migrants arriving. Pony Barn and the Maintenance Loop seem to be the busiest spots with both birds and birders. Yellow-throated Warbler has visited the visitor centre feeders again this morning. A female Cerulean Warbler is at the Maintenance Loop along with multiple Mourning and Canada Warblers among many other warblers. Multiple Mourning and Canada Warblers are also at Pony Barn. Some consolation from missing the Kirtland's yesterday was a Grasshopper Sparrow feeding on the lawn across from the Marsh Trail entrance. Other reports yesterday included Clay-coloured Sparrow and Glaucous Gull along the east side of South Point Trail. Thank you to everyone who contributed sightings and please continue to do so at the Visitor Centre.
