I saw a prairie warbler this morning at 10:45 on an unassumed road just off the Victoria Rail Trail in Bethany, Kawartha Lakes.
It flew onto a low open branch after having just obviously had a bath. Sat preening at eye level for about 1 minute. Very obvious chestnut streaking on the back, black facial markings with bright yellow eyebrow, black streaks on sides, two wing bars. Flew off and not found again. Kim Clark - Bethany >From Highway 115, take the Porter Road exit and go north. Turn right onto >Weston road. Follow Weston Road until it ends and becomes an unassumed road. >Walk the road to almost the other end (less than 1 km). When you go down the >hill, you will see an open area on your right (a bit marshy). That is where >the Prairie warbler was as well as a mourning warber. _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
