Hi All

Just wanted to let everyone know that the selasphorus hummingbirds species 
reported by Paul Pratt yesterday is still present today.  I popped out to 
Kingsville around noon today and within five minutes of arriving at 95 Queen 
Street, I was able to watch the bird pop in and out of the feeder several 
times over a 15 minute period.  It seemed completely unphased by the 
excavation going on near the feeder and I was able to get really great 
looks.  Finally, a rare bird in the area that I'm actually free from all 
other duties to get out and see!

I will be working at the park tomorrow - if anyone sees the hummingbird 
tomorrow, feel free to give me a call - 519-322-5700 x10.  I'll do my best 
to keep up to date on the sightings.

Queen St is located in the town of Kingsville - as Paul indicated, it run 
north and south and is one block west of Division Road, off of Cty Rd 20 
(Main Street).

Good birding everyone!
