Andrew, You are absolutely right. I really don't know why people who saw the bird in the afternoon did not post to NYSBIRDS-L.Probably they are not subscribed to the list - that's my guess.
The flycatcher was not in Wave Hill in the afternoon but a bit north of there, ranging from Sycamore and 252nd to 254th for the rest of the day. I didn't post because I didn't see it and only heard it late in the afternoon. Several other people heard it after 5pm also. Several birders saw it between 12:30 and 3pm, and Bob DeCandido saw it at around 3:20pm close to 254th Street. I should think there would be some checklists on ebird later, but there's nothing like timely reporting. Hope it sticks around and shows itself tomorrow, Deb Allen -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Block <ablock22...@yahoo.com> Sent: Oct 9, 2022 5:59 PM To: NYS Birds <nysbirds-l@cornell.edu> Subject: [nysbirds-l] Sulphur-bellied Flycatcher at Wave Hill? Just got back from Wave Hill in the bronx and the woman at the gate who was closing up said it wasn't seen since this am. A shame it was never posted here. Only saw it posted to the FB group and that was hours later. Shame shame on these people who don't post here and don't post on the FB group until hours later. The report never came up on my FB until about 40 minutes ago. A shame what birding has become. Andrew Andrew v. F.
