Hello birders,
Myself and Allen Bryan looked for the Macgillivray's Warbler this past
Thursday morning, but did not relocate it. However it was a nice
morning to be out with 3 or 4 Fox Sparrows in song, and 4
Orange-crowned Warbler seen. This is a high count for the Hopewell CBC
area for Orange-crowned Warbler . Previous high counts were from 1955
and 2008 with 3 individuals.

Many 1000s of gulls persist in the area. Mostly Laughing Gull. 2 1st
year Lesser Black-backs were also seen. Also 1 shorebird sp., very
distant, probably a Dunlin.

Good Birding,

Arun Bose
