Much like my Rustic Bunting at Mt. Tabor experience, i.e. missing the bird by 5 minutes, I was there in litterally about two minutes since I was already in the park and Tom called me right away. We looked for about 45 minutes with no success. The first spring bird song walk is this Wedensday and if we run into it I'll be sure to post it, but don't hold your breath.

It vocalized repeatedly and, though the light and viewing angles were not too good, a gentleman passerby, who had a camera, got a photo. Don't have that with me... yet, after email exchange that should be forthcoming. good birding, Tom
