Observation details
**late; very unusual record, and first for Boston CBC. We found it feeding in red cedars at the high point of the south end of the island just S of the pond. Photos by Ryan. We tracked it into the thickets, but then heard Seb and Chris had seen it earlier along the W shore of the island. Later, Ryan and I were birding the SE tip when it came flying in overhead giving flight calls, as if attempting to cross to Squaw Rock in morning flight. Amazing to have three separate encounters with a bird like this, behaving like an October migrant rather than a winter lingerer.
