Found a Blue Grosbeak in Orange County (Indiana Road) recently in the same location of the previously reported Dickcissil. Other birds in the area include Vesper Sparrow Grasshopper Sparrow Savannah Sparrow Bobolinks (Numerous) Kestrels Harriers (Fledglings) Stopped by White Plains (Galleria Mall) to check on the Peregrines. Had little luck finding the Peregrines but found it interesting to see Woodchucks on top of the roof. Curious how this mammal managed to get on top of the galleria mall? Here are my theories: 1. Released from someone? 2. Golden Eagle dropped it here by accident? 3. it climbed the parking garage? 4. Placed here on purpose to control weed growth on the mall? The Ravens nested successfully in White Plains on the radio tower. James
