Observation details
First reported by Fifi Gifford on behalf of her husband Richard who got several photos of the bird wading off Chapin Beach between 3 and 6PM. Later Sam Roth submitted photos and a video she had gotten earlier that afternoon on the dead low tide. Close cropped photo by Richard Gifford, distant photo by Sam Roth. Alost certainly the same bird that was on Long Island Friday and Saturday. Many birds displaced by hurricane Idalia last August as far north as Wisconcin, and a flock of 4 in Georgia still as recently as June 3. This is likely a wandering bird displaced by Idlalia last summer and the first wild flamingo for Massachusetts.
