Bruce Warblers

Spent a beautiful long weekend up at the family cottage.  Sunday morning I hit Bruce Caves for a bit of birding (and to do my part in keeping the local blackfly population well fed).  A voice I couldn’t quite place led me to a male Mourning Warbler singing in the poplars.  Across the clearing, a Black and White Warbler answered.  Although the former was a better find, I spent far more time with the latter — BAWWs sport a plumage that is a lot more fun to put down in pencil.
