Exploring around London

August 19, 2020 - Killaly Meadows ESA, London, Ontario

I went to Killaly Meadows this morning.  I have not been there for awhile. Lots of young robins around.  I have not seen any Fall warblers yet.  There were lots of American Goldfinches, Cedar Waxwings, Northern Cardinals and Mallards.  I watched a family of House Wrens.  The adults feeding their young.  I heard Red-eyed Vireos, Eastern Wood Pewees and Carolina Wrens.

Not many birds today...there were just seven Mallards in the pond.  I saw a Double-crested Cormorant flyover, Ring-bill Gull, Osprey and Blue Jays.  I was also looking for butterflies.  Lots of Cabbage Whites, Viceroys, a Monarch, Northern Crescents, and some Yellow Sulphurs.

A few Turkey Vultures were circling around.

I  hope next week I can find some warblers!
