- Comments: "The first was in the elm grove, where they have been seen but this appeared to be a dull immature bird and not the the bright adult that showed up last week and stayed until yesterday. Photos. The second landed on some metal barricades between ballfields 5 and 6 with some Pipits for a minute or so before calling a few times and heading west. Poor photos. (Possible these are the same bird but I spoke to another birder after I saw the second who told me she had just seen one in the elm grove)
"Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns."
