That would certainly be interesting to say the least! Thanks for sharing the post, Anders. I checked out eBird quickly yesterday and saw that multiple areas in OH and PA to the SW, S, and SE had counts into the dozens, but I hadn't examined it in detail in terms of NY and figured surely someone in the strong WNY birding community would have infrequently picked up a flock.
Chautauqua and Cattaraugus Counties are severely under-birded, and many more unique or rare sightings undoubtedly go unseen. I've entered it into eBird.
