Thanks, Glenn. I have been without transportation or busy, but I know
some tried yesterday between midday and 3 p.m. without success. The
same farmer told me that he first saw the bird last Sunday, August
31st. That's certainly possible and makes sense.
One suggestion: folks might have better success by not camping out
under the telephone poles. Cruising back and forth is one option or
staying on the north side of Rt 2 nearer the Crossroads Landfill
entrance (opposite the farmhouse). and scanning up and down the
highway. If the bird is out in the pastures or trees behind the
farmhouse, then one needs to scan from different positions west or
east of the house. But the bird is skittish and not likely to fly up
to the utility poles if cars stop underneath it or are parked along
that side of the road with people standing around.
