to be courteous to the farm operators and visitors, and park only in designated areas. The owners of Greig Farm have been exceptionally kind in allowing birders to bird the farm, and we should all return the favor by being respectful of their land and their operations. Good birding! David Chernack

To clarify, the bird was photographed (quite beautifully in fact) by Jim Yates yesterday, Thursday January 13th, at Esopus Meadows. Jim posted his photos to the "What's this bird?" Facebook page this evening to ascertain the ID, hence the delayed report. No eBird reports were submitted from Esopus
