With help from Mike Cooper, I put in a vigil this evening, hoping to line up the kingbird for Pat on her way home from work. We had no luck at all, even after eagle-eyed Pat joined us.
Reluctant to give up, Pat decided to walk down the four-wheel drive track as I headed home. As luck would have it, I found it sitting low in a leafless bush in the median, opposite the toll booths (Robert Moses SP, Field 2). This was at 6:05 pm.

It can be quite elusive so some patients may be required. It is probably best to view from the course clubhouse looking north and east. There are golfers around so walking around on the course is not advisable.
