[nysbirds-l] Couch's Kingbird 3:15-4:30 PM NO

I high-tailed it down to Jane and Washington after landing at LGA this afternoon but despite about 20 people searching, from about 3:15 until dark the Couch's Kingbird was not located. Does anyone know where it goes to roost? Any sense of the best late afternoon spot? Thanks, Dawn Hannay

Hi all, I didn't see any rattlesnakes this Sunday when I was up on Doodletown Road, but here's one I photographed in 2006 right on the side of Doodletown Road. Dawn Hannay ​ On Mon, May 26, 2014 at 9:56 PM, Rick wrote: > The senior adult I photographed on May 31, 2009, had 13 rattle segme

as well, including at least a dozen Tennessee Warblers, Canadas, Chestnut-sided and more. Another highlight was watching 4 male Indigo Buntings chasing each other endlessly. I definitely recommend a visit! Dawn Hannay Sent from my iPhone -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com
