Today Bob Tyler, Margaret Liubavicius and I birded Ward’s and Algonquin Islands and the following are some of the birds we found that may be of interest. 1 Yellow-billed Cuckoo, Ruby-throated Hummingbirds, Chimney Swifts, Eastern Wood[Pewees, Yellow-bellied, Willow, 13 Least and Great-crested Flycatchers, 1 lone Eastern Kingbird, Red-breasted and White-breasted Nuthatches, House Wrens, Blue-grey Gnatcatchers, 11 Swainson’s Thrushes, Gray Catbirds, Warbling, Philadelphia and 17 Red-eyed Vireos, Northern Waterthrush, Tennessee, Nashville, Chestnut-sided, Magnolia, Cape-may, Bay-breasted, Blackpoll and Black and White Warblers, American Redstart, Scarlet Tanagers, and a dwindling number of Baltimore Orioles and not one Yellow Warbler. Believe it or not it was a slow day for this time of year but can only get better, I hope. Note:- Both washrooms are open on Ward's as is the one at the city side of the docks but the washroom on the ferry is closed due to Corvid. Some but not all of the water fountains are working but you can obtain water in the washrooms. There is also a washroom at the Island Fire Station west of the ferry dock. There are no washrooms or fountains on Algonquin Island and no washrooms on Snake Island but on Snake Island there is a water drinking fountain and a water fountain for filling a bucket or pail plus there are 4 Fire Pits and 4 Picnic Sites. I don't know if a permit is required but you may want to check at https://www.toronto.ca/data/parks/prd/facilities/complex/3536/index.html The Riviera Café just east of the bridge onto Algonquin Island (west of the ferry dock) is open 7 days a week but this could change so you may want to check at https://www.islandriviera.com/ The Island Café straight out from the ferry dock is closed until further notice.
