ANy indications that this year's spring migration is over?

I feel like the numbers are really petering out.
Just wondering if we're at the end.

Normally a few migrants still into the first week of June, but yeah, seems to be winding down for sure

Yes....  Slow morning at Rosetta McClain gardens so I think its coming to an end.  Heard and saw a Blackpoll warbler today at Bluffers park in Scarborough.  Blackpoll's are one of the last warblers to arrive.......  nice to hear their "ticking" song.  Cheers Terry

Earth to birders,it always slows down the last week of May,this is 100% normal. Toronto birding goes into dead time in June and July,(to me at least) with only painfully common nesting birds around. They can be fun to watch still though. Always loved watching a Redtail nest.
I spend summer doing Falcon fledge watches,a chance to give back and learn while watching an amazing species live its daily life.

There are still plenty of shorebirds moving, plus some later warblers, cuckoos etc. But, yes, things ae certainly slowing down... But the first southbound non-breeding shorebirds will turn up in southern Ontario five weeks or so from now...

June is a great time to visit the Carden Alvar, the Bruce Peninsula, or Algonquin Park with many species in full song and relatively easy to locate. A much closer option is somewhere like Cranberry Marsh in Whitby. An early morning visit to Cranberry can be very rewarding during this time of year. I visited many times when we were living in the east end of Toronto.

Walked this morning with the Rouge Park group on the Woodland Trail  south from Ressor Rd and Steeles.  Saw about 35 species mostly on territory!  One Blackpoll warbler passing through!  Yellow warblers, Chestnut sided, Yellow-throat and Ovenbird appeared to be singing on territory guarding!  Lots of Indigo buntings.....  beautiful bird!  Cheers Terry
