Just a head's up as we enter the the transition between birds in active migration and breeders, some interesting birds are moving north and east. It's likely a worthy endeavor to keep checking your local patches. The latest is a Scissor-tailed Flycatcher in RI.

I just received a call from Ed Becher who reported a Brown Pelican briefly touching down in the ocean near field six, but then picked up and kept on heading east. Many thanks to Ed for the report and I applaud the folks who continue to use the list serves for rare and or uncommon bird reports.

For folks on the fence on whether a trip like this might be worth it, check out the bird that made an unexpected appearance 17 miles east of Gloucester MA (on the northeast side of Tillies Bank.) See the report here from the 7 seas whale watch website.
