Black-throated Blue Warbler Point Pelee Workshop Opening

Here is a beautiful Black-Throated Blue Warbler from an incredible afternoon during my Songbirds of Pelee Workshop last May 8, 2023.

Due to a medical emergency, I suddenly have space available for my May 7-11 Songbirds of Pelee Workshop (Get well soon, Dave) that sold out last July. Join me for this epic experience at the peak of the spring songbird migration at one of the top 10 birding destinations in the world! I am a fully licenced operator in the park.

Point Pelee National Park is one of the best inland locations to observe bird migration. Its location on major migratory flyways and the north shore of Lake Erie make it a migrant trap—a place that attracts a wide diversity of species in a tiny area. More than 390 species of birds have been recorded in the Point Pelee Birding Area.

Here is a Black-throated Blue Warbler from my recently concluded SONGBIRDS OF PELEE WORKSHOP in Point Peele National Park of Canada. The sold-out trip was a huge success, with a fabulous group and extraordinary photographic opportunities and birding moments enjoyed by everyone. The last image I made yesterday (May 11) before making the 9-hour drive home. A special year for me, with my nephew, Shane, joining in the fun!

Special thanks to the whole Peele 2023 crew! Great times were had by all! Front row L-R: Me (Chris), Howard, Linda, Pierre-Alexandre, Louise. Back row l-R: Omar, Sanjeev, & Shane.
