Observation details
When leaving the museum after my docent duties, I was shocked to hear the YANK-YANK-YANK of a RBNU. Fortunately I always have my camera with me while on my shift and I was able to locate the bird in the trees right outside the main entrance gate (in front of the restrooms). Fortunately I was able to get a few photos before it flew into the museum grounds. Attached is the best photo. The focus on the bird is soft, but the ID is clear from the image. This is, I believe, the first of this species seen at ASDM. Hopefully this won't be a one-day-wonder.
