Observation details

Continuing since at least Nov 7. On top of Utility Pole behind the house. W hill the owner is currently fine with birders be respectful. I was fortunate in that Tracy Drake had located the bird and I was able to observe it for about 10 minutes when it flew off and could not be relocated. Apparently, it was seen a few hours later as a flyby. The bird was pretty far away and a good telephoto was needed and even then it is quite small in the frame. These images appear little larger on my Flickr page https://www.flickr.com/photos/25876581@N00/
