Noel and all,The other long-tailed vagrant species, Fork-tailed Flycatcher, has been seen the past few days in Iowa and Missouri. Though the Scissor-tailed is more likely it is worth knowing that the other species has been ruled out.

This was sent to last night from a friend who works at the Bradleysculpture gardens on Brown Deer Rd. on the north side of Milwaukee. Noel Cutright, Ozaukee CountyHi Noel, I watched a scissor-tailed flycatcher at the sculpture garden today. It is the first one that I've ever seen. I looked in Sibley and I see that Wisconsin is in the bird's range. It would sit on a bluebird house and swoop down for insects. Neat bird.#################### You received this email because you are subscribed to the WISBIRDN list. To UNSUBSCRIBE or SUBSCRIBE, use Wisbirdn web interface at: //www.freelists.org/list/wisbirdn.
