[mou-net] Chat

The Chat was there at 11:00 and so was a Catbird, Brown Thrasher, Rose Breasted 
Grosbeak, Oriole, and an Eastern Towhee. Along with the terrain and all these 
similar 
sounds like a Chat, or may I say the sounds the Chat could mimic, it proved 
challenging at 
times. Hang in there and find the bird because if you go by sound you may not 
have found 
it. How can this be classified a warbler when appearance and sound contradict 
all I know 
about warblers? Also, Ron Taube gave me a good lesson about butterflies and it 
shows why 
birding and all it entails is so much fun. Frank Gosiak

The Chat was present this morning (7am) at the previously described Afton
State Park spot - singing loudly and showing himself clearly.

Also saw a Black-billed Cuckoo in the trees near the 50th St entrance and
never heard so many Henslow's Sparrows in this field before.

Have fun!
