I relocated Laura and Roi's Blackburnian at the south end of the Podell Boardwalk at 2:40PM, although it was far less cooperative for me than it was for them. In typical fashion for the species, it was at vertebrae-shattering height in a large oak blossoming with catkins, although it was singing readily which made it fairly easy to pick out.
