The Phainopepla was seen briefly by Rob Dobos at the top of a tree on Aberdeen on the north side across from House number #7. The bird flew down into a yard and birders are searching now. Just an FYI that the bird is around today for those travelling long distance. The neighbours are very accommodating with coffee and cookies this morning! Needless to say should be offered an OFO certificate for having birders crawl all over the place for the past few days.
