Bird was there at 12:45 today. Last seen preening for 10 minutes in the left most of three apple trees on the red barn property (trees are in a row adjacent to the red barn). The bird was not present the first half hour I was there. First spotted on the roadside wire to the west of the red barn, then flew high across the field to the tall broad-topped white pine behind the red barn. It then flew to the wires directly in front of the red barn and caught insects from there for 10 minutes. Great bird! Kurt W.

When I was there it regularly perched on the top of a tall spruce near an old-looking house a couple of driveways east of 646. Curt Morgan had earlier seen it perched on the power lines and flying out low over the field across the road. -- David Martin Slingerlands, New York http://naturebits.org -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
