Common Ground-Dove continues. No sign as yet of the Western Kingbird since it was driven off by a Northern Mockingbird. Good and responsible birding! Andrew Baksh Queens NY www.birdingdude.blogspot.com

At 9:50, during one of the dove's absences, a Western Kingbird appeared along the same edge of vegetation. I had to leave shortly thereafter, but I heard from Lloyd Spitalnik that the dove reappeared in its usual haunts and gave a good show for all its newly assembled devotees. At last report, neither dove nor kingbird were visible, but I would think that patient scanning of the northern edge of the easternmost lot is likely to be rewarded.

This is the northern edge of the eastern-most parking lot at captree, a bit east of the boat basin.
