A slow day.

Only 9 warbler species today.


Ovenbird, Rondeau Provincial Park, Aug 19, 2022.
Not a common visitor to the yard.
Seiurus aurocapilla .
The Ovenbird female weaves the cup, side entrance, and roof of her domed nest from the inside as a single, integrated piece. Then she drops leaves and twigs on top to hide it. If the chicks inadvertently dismantle the dome as they grow, the female ignores the damage.
