I want to thank John Askildsen for posting the alternative identification; however, I also want to thank Linda for trying to get the word out soon of a possible good bird, especially in light of all of the other recent regional oddities and accidentals. To quote someone whom I have great respect for: "I'd rather go chase a rare bird, and find it was not the species originally thought, than to find out about a rare bird too late and never know!" Thanks again and good birding to all!! Sincerely, Chris T-H On Sep 10, 2011, at 8:35 AM, Christopher T.

If further confirmation and more directions or accessibility to see this bird are available, I will forward on. Thanks (Linda!), and good birding! Sincerely, Chris T-H From: "L.
