Migration slowed a little since Tuesday but Margaret Liubavicius, Gunnar Bessel and I did find 16 Warbler species before noon.

Blue-winged, Tennessee, Nashville, Yellow, Chestnut-sided, Magnolia, Black-throated Blue, Yellow-rumped, Black-throated Green, Blackburnian, Pine, Bay-breasted, Black-and-white and Wilson's Warblers, Northern Waterthrush, and A. Redstart.

We also found Philladelphia, Warbling and Red-eyed Vireos along with Great-crested, Yellow-bellied and Least Flycatchers, Gnatcatchers, Wood-Pewee, R-T Hummingbirds, and some usual suspects.

Hi Norm,

What are your thoughts about checking out Tommy Thompson in the next couple of weeks looking for some migrants?  Just want to pick my spots so that I get the most out of the migration.

Thanks,
Joseph

The Spit is another one of the top places to bird during both Spring and Fall migration.

 You may also want to check out High Park and Colonel Sam Smith park in Etobicoke.

 Be sure to check the baselands in the morning.
