[Ontbirds]Prothonotary Warbler - West Deane Park, Etobicoke

[cver]

After reading David Pyror's post I went to try my luck at West Dean Park.  I
did not find the Kentucky as previously posted but I did find a male
Prothonotary Warbler.  He was high up in the tree which is not where I
expected to see one. This was around 11 am

The bird was seen on the west side of Mimico Creek (across the bridge at the
Martingrove Parking lot) and about 300 yards north on the path that runs
parallel to the creek.

Additional warblers to David's post were Tennessee, Parula and Bay Breasted
Unfortunately it started to rain so I had leave before I had a chance to see
if the Kentucky was still in the area.   There was a good party of many
species of warblers there.  


Directions from David's post. 
The West Deane/Ravenscrest/Hampshire Heights/Echo Valley park system
comprises the Mimico Creek Ravine and runs between Kipling/Burnhamthorpe
streets in the south throught to Eglinton Avenue & Hwy. 427 in the north.

Directions from downtown Toronto: Gardiner Expressway West, north on Hwy
427, Rathburn Road offramp west to Martingrove Road, left (north) on
Martingrove to West Dean Park parking lot on left (west) side of road.
