Observation details
Continuing from yesterday, but today it is roosting on the ground on the downtown side of the beer garden. I don’t know how one could assess its status without flushing it, which I didn’t want to do. It is a nocturnal bird that does habitually roosts on the ground so I err on the side of it being fine, albeit wet from the rain. Update: Unfortunately, the bird was found dead on the morning of 5/19/24. JRT picked it up and it will go into the collection of Harvard MCZ. It was in an emaciated condition, so evidently it was not feeding.
