Continuing, after multiple unsuccessful attempts to find this bird. Photos and audio recordings. Kingbird with big thick dark bill, slight crest, brownish upperparts with rufous edges on wing coverts. Dark crown and face contrasting with white throat and white breast, which blended into yellower belly, yellow vent and undertail coverts. Calling frequently, a squeaky rising call. We first saw and heard it slightly after 10:15am in the tree tobacco above the cactus patch at the edge of the hillside north of the dog park; we then encountered Mark Wilson who told us that he had been following the bird from farther west along the hillside. The bird was eating bees and calling frequently. At roughtly 10:25am it flew south out of sight toward the dog park. We relocated it 5 minutes later on the bare snags in the ditch that runs along the west end of the dog park. The bird stayed in that ditch for the next 15 minutes, sallying out and catching bees, calling frequently, and perching on several of the bare snags in the ditch. At about 10:45 it flew to the tallest bare tree inside the southwest corner of the dog park, and sat there silently. We then noticed a Cooper's Hawk perched where the kingbird had been moments before (presumably this was why the kingbird had moved). The Thick-billed Kingbird remained perched, silent, at the top of the dog-park tree for about 10 minutes, and then it suddenly flew southeast, over the parking lot, toward the soccer fields and the deserted area south of the park. We lost sight of it behind the trees just south of the parking lot. We checked those trees, and trees around the soccer field area southeast of the dog park, but did not refind it; we suspect it flew into the wash south of the soccer field but we are not sure.
