Hi everyone. I was walking at Maplewood Park today from 11:45am - 1:15pm and sighted the following:
Black-and-white Warblers x 2 (1m, 1f)
Black-throated Blue Warblers x 4 (males) ... one of my all-time favourites. So beautiful!
Cardinals x 3
Chickadees x 3
Cooper's Hawk x 1 - flying around the middle woods with twigs, kept returning to the same nest. Will be interesting to see whether this turns out to be a "dummy" nest or a real nest! Would be really awesome to see baby hawks here again - it's been a few years!
Goldfinch x 1 (male) ... bright yellow "mini banana" plumage.
House Sparrows - dozens
Robins x 6
Other: Could hear Chipping Sparrows but not see them.
Flowers: white Trilliums at South end of woods.
Maplewood Park: East side of Glen Erin Dr., just North of Aquitaine Ave.
