Kay Kavanagh reports the bird still present as of 12:45pm on the west side of
the road just north of the farm. Due to a cold rain and wind chills in the low
20s, the bird was fairly inactive and perched low to the ground.

Bird is apparently still present as of 10am in same location. I don't know
anything more than that though.
