We, too, had a group of 9 KINGBIRDS go through our yard in Burnt Chimney on
Sunday. Gerry, did yours happen to be heading west? We've never seen that
many together before.
Other new yard birds for the day included CHIMNEY SWIFT, BELTED KINGFISHER,
ROSE-BREASTED GROSBEAK, AND GREAT CRESTED FLYCATHER.
