[Ontbirds]Rare Bird- Yellow-throated Warbler in Port Burwell

[Joe Stephenson]

3 January 2008

Hi All Birders,

We are happy to report that the solitary Yellow-throated Warbler is  
continuing to be active in Port Burwell.

We have seen it every day since December 15th.  As of today after the  
very cold weather, it still is here.

We are of course hoping for the promise of warmer weather for it and  
many other birds.

It will certainly be a miracle if it survives 'til spring and beyond.

Regards,
Joe Stephenson
