Subject: White-crowned Sparrow and Lewis Lake PP Warblers


A White-crowned Sparrow was foraging on the forest floor about 5 metres north of our house in Portuguese Cove this morning.  This is our second one this spring or perhaps a revisit from the earlier bird.

I walked my usual circuit at Lewis Lake PP this morning, from shortly after 6AM to about 8:30AM.  It was windy and very cold so I regretted not donning gloves.  The park gates are closed until 8AM so I parked at the gates and walked in.  No problem here, the walk was eventful with several Black-throated Blue Warblers and two Canada Warblers heard on route plus lots of the more common stuff.  All told I saw or heard thirteen warbler species, the only common one not found was Yellow Warbler. All these warblers are summer residents here. 

I look forward to a quiet sunny day.

Hans
