Descripción
Mega rarity found yesterday by Steve Charbonneau. A potential 1st record for Ontario.
We re-located the bird close to where Steve originally found it yesterday, along South Point Trail near the second bench (42.25669, -81.85286). Throughout the next two hours it remained in the same general area, sometimes disappearing for 5-10 minutes at a time and then reappearing along the trail. It was loosely associating with a Yellow Warbler. When we left, the flycatcher was a few hundred meters northeast of where we had originally observed it, around 42.25823, -81.85109, still along South Point Trail. It was quite active this morning and appeared to look healthy and alert. As far as I am aware, it hasn't been relocated since, but the poor weather that rolled in certainly isn't helping matters.
A tricky ID and both Western Flycatcher and Yellow-bellied Flycatcher have been floated as possibilities. In my opinion, this is a Western Flycatcher for the following reasons:
-
Single large gap in the primary tips when at rest, as opposed to even-width primary tips typical of YBFL.
-
Relatively drab wing panel, compared to the more contrasty black and white wing panel shown by YBFL.
-
Peaked crown. The bird was missing a couple of feathers in the crown but still appeared to have a much more peaked crown, much more so than any YBFL that I have seen.
-
While eyering shape is variable, this bird had a classic tear-dropped shape eye ring much wider behind the eye than in front.
-Bird appeared rather long-tailed, something that I noted both in the field and in photos.
I welcome any further opinions! Not an easy ID.....

Ongoing checking of this endangered species population. In flower on Aug 12, and not again until Aug 25. Looks to have a few more buds that may open in the next week or two. On the 25th, there were about 125 plants noted, probably a few more that were missed. Lots of doubles and even a triple. And this time there were more with a nice touch of magenta.

Not in one of the more usual locations for this species to nest in the park, but I guess it works for this pair!

Very unusual. It is probably the first confirmed record for Rondeau. Highly unexpected, and may have arrived via a load of firewood for the park's supply, or via a camper/trailer.

Descripción
Bird was at a private residence for a few days, with significant logistical challenges for accessing by the likely crowds of birders wanting to see it. The consensus with the landowner was to not put the word out.

This specimen was found floating around in my garage. I allowed it to climb in my hand and took this photo.
