Hi all, Wheatear was still there as of 6 PM. Frequenting the fence along the train tracks but also flying all around the area, perching in trees, on a garbage can, and often staying on the ground inside the train track fence. Luckily, the many trains moving by would flush the bird onto the fence for great looks when this occurred.
