 Golden winged, black-billed cuckoo- Long Sault- July 29 |
 |
Another great day at Long Sault today, especially early, between 6 and 7am.
Highlights:
-black-billed cuckoo
-indigo bunting-5
-wood duck
-brown thrasher-2
-field sparrow-8
-red shouldered hawk-1
-red-breasted nuthatch-6
-ruby-throated hummingbird-2
-rose-breasted grosbeak
-belted kingfisher-2
warbler species: nashville, black and white, yellow, common yellowthroat, tennessee, golden winged
It was only the second time I've ever seen a golden-winged warbler and it stayed in plain sight for over a minute, no more than 15 feet away. A beautiful male who was kind enough to let me see him from the front back and side. The black-billed cuckoo croaked and then styaed in plain sight on a small jack pine for 3-4 minutes. A great surprise!
Happy birding
-Tim-

Are you referring to Long Sault Conservation Area or Long Sault near Cornwall?
