[Ontbirds]Black-headed Gull and Yellow Warbler at Fort Erie

[Marcia Jacklin]

Hi

Sorry to steal Jim Pawlicki's thunder but he located a Black-headed Gull along the Niagara River Parkway at Fort Erie as he was leading a trip for the Buffalo Ornithological Society. He first located it opposite Wintermude Street. We just missed but we saw a YELLOW WARBLER at that spot.

We continued with Jim and the BOS group along the Parkway to Central where he relocated the BLACK-HEADED GULL. This is a pale bird, no black on the cap and a bright orange bill.

We also had a Black Scoter at the mouth of the Niagara River at Lake Erie and a Red-necked Grebe and 3 Horned Grebes opposite Gilmore Road.
