- Comments: "Beautiful bird found by Nick.D yesterday. Not sure i have ever seen a bird being this cooperative besides for catbirds Mockingbird,(and of course the Pigeons). Seen flycatching in the 3 bare trees at the restrooms, but  it always returned to eye level perching on the wooden fence that runs adjacent to the official path. Feeding on the berrys of the Virginia creeper that grow on the fence."
