Well today was as spring-like a day as you could wish for after such a crappy April! I am happy to see most of the snow is gone from Fergus!
Today I was down in the Long Point area for work and took some time to swing by the park to see what birds were around. I had many 'First of Year' (FOY) birds. It was great to see some warblers. I had Yellow-rumped, Pine and a single Palm Warbler at the provincial park. Below are a few shots of what I saw today.

I am excited for migration and feel that the big push of migrants is so close I can taste it. I will be at Pelee this year from May 5-12 this year. What are your spring plans?
Birding. LOL! I am taking a week off as well on the same dates! (Hope it is not too early given the spring we have had).
ReplyDeleteGood to hear Blake! I will see you there! And yea, I hope the birds do catch up!
