Although going to Point Pelee was on the 'to do' list this weekend, we had some great sightings just in our garden in Kingsville - even had local visitors who were thrilled to see several birds they had never seen in their own garden... . a pair of Rose-breasted Grosbeaks pair of Northern Orioles (who have decided they prefer the Hummingbird food to their own! This was the case last year too!) Yellow-throated Warbler Summer Tanager Golden-crowned Kinglet Young Ruby-throated Hummingbird Red-billed woodpecker...regular daily visitor Cardinals - 'resident' visitors 3 Bluejays flew by Lots of American Goldfinch Lots of black-capped Chickadees
Suspect the Indigo Bunting returned but missed it...usually turns up at about 8 pm and forgot to check outside. Really enjoy seeing everyone's sightings ... the birds know Spring is here!! Happy birding everyone...although this week looks somewhat damp and miserable which is a shame. _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
