Wayne Renaud and I birded the Long Point Area. In total, we saw around 80 species in about 10 hours.

Highlights were a red-headed woodpecker, warbling vireo and blue-headed vireo close to where the picnic benches are currently stored
in the park.

Warblers were present but not in large numbers or variety. We managed to see yellow-rumped, black-throated green, palm, black and
white and yellow warbler.

A bobolink flew over us as we were looking for shorebirds at the Causeway.

Long Point is found south of Simcoe follow # 24 south to # 59 straight on to the park ( or page # 10 in Mapart Ont road atlas )

Good Birding
