Hi, I checked on the Fargo/Moorhead CBC Gray Jay this morning (the 22nd) and found it near 6102 2nd St. N. at 9:45. That's in Oakport Township directly north of Moorhead. Assuming that this bird, a bird being reported in the 6000 block of 3rd St. N., and the bird seen in the 6000 block of NW Broadway on count day (all Oakport addresses) are the same jay, it's wandering daily through a territory a mile or so wide. Much of the area is sparsely residential with a pretty good number of feeders, but it also contains fairly thick forest (largely sapling-sized deciduous trees), fields with scattered trees and bushes, and evergreen clusters. And a stretch of the whole is riparian woodland.
Hope a few others get to see this bird. Please post your sightings if you do. Bob O'Connor
