Updated the map once again to show approximate locations of sightings Nov. 28 (one of), Dec. 2, and today. I have marked December dates as Dn. I'm thinking that Andrew was not including today's sighting in the range expansion. If I'm interpreting it correctly, it's between previous locations. One

Hi, I am thinking of trying for the Virginia's Warbler on Wednesday (5th December), this will be my first opportunity since it was found to get there. If anyone else is thinking of trying that day, send me an email as it seems like team work may be the best option. All the best, Pete -- NYSb

The Virginia's Warbler was seen twice between 11:30 and 12:30 at the location where it was seen at 1:45 yesterday. This is on the trail on the south side of the gully, at a high point with good visibility into the gully. There is a new twist - an Orange-crowned Warbler - that may throw birders off.

Thanks Steve for posting an updated map. The bird was seen on and off as late as 4:20 p.m. Reminder: Please remember to follow the ABA code of ethics when birding. Excessive tape playing is not the way to go about trying to see this rarity and may actually push the bird away instead of enticing

Sorry for the skimpiness on the location I gave before, but of course if that didn't mean anything to you, you weren't going to get there before dark, anyway.

A couple of people asked me to keep them posted, so here goes. It did indeed get dark. Only a Redstart, which Eric says was in loose company with the Virginia's, was seen (or called) after I got there. I'll post directions later - after I resume the dinner I was interrupted from. Steve
