Historical record 1980, near Yathkyed Lake, Nunavut,
In open tundra, the group was in the process of forming a defensive circle due to the proximity of Canis lupus hudsonicus (wolves) which were distributed around the margins of the group. Third image identifies one of the wolves with an arrow.

Observed relocation of nest located too close to high tide line. Volunteers excavated nest, carefully removed eggs, and closed up nesting hole. A new nest was excavated above the usual tide line, although proximity of eroded dune prevented location above storm tide, which occurred on 18 May. As eggs were placed into new nest, a count was made by volunteers. (Final count was unavailable to observer, although volunteer coordinator estimated +/- 115 eggs as an average for location.

Bird came in to playback, as part of a study. Other pictures/sightings on eBird. If you are looking for a bird guide on St. Vincent to see the warbler, I'd highly recommend Glenroy Gaymes! Contact info can be found here: https://caribbeanbirdingtrail.org/guides/

Couldn't resist uploading a few old UK rarity photos. All taken with a Minolta SLR (model I can't remember) and a Tamron 500mm SP mirror lens on slides and scanned with an Epson scanner. Quality awful but great memories.
