Kingston - Not only is this bird far from its normal range, it is unusual to see one in this plumage this far north. Captured at first light.

Kingston - What a treat seeing this bird. We had a false report near home the week before then this bird was confirmed. I spent quite a while observing and shooting, hoping for it to not be backlit. Only a few times over several hours did it move into good light.

Chris: Oh my. What a treat to find let alone capture in such a spectacular way. Congrats. I see the map function worked ☺️
BrianMorin: I spent five hours patiently waiting for this bird to cooperate. It was often only 20-30 feet away so it was frustrating not to be able to get decent shots for long periods. As for the map function, it is one I'll likely use with regularity.
