Good morning, Although the weather is quite unpleasant today, there are a decent number of birds to be seen. We haven't had many reports but no doubt there are some interesting things around.
The east side of South Point Trail has been quite productive this morning, with Hooded Warbler being the most notable. Prothonotary Warblers continue to be seen at the back of Tulip Tree Trail. Keep an eye up, there are Mississippi Kites around! Thank you to everyone who contributed sightings and please continue to do so to me through email, or to the Visitor Centre in person or at (519) 674-1768. More information on the park's nature programs and the Friends of Rondeau is available at the Friends' website: www.rondeauprovincialpark.ca. Directions: Take exit 101 from Highway 401 and drive South 16 km on Chatham Kent Road 15. Turn right and follow the signs to the park. Bird sighting information, bird checklists, bird feeders, and breakfast and lunch offered by the Friends can be found at the visitor centre. To reach the visitor centre from the park gate, travel 6 km South on Rondeau Road to Gardiner Ave., then follow it around the bend to the parking lot. I lead guided bird hikes in the park twice daily - contact the visitor centre for more information.
