So, a Scissor-tailed Flycatcher was seen on July 25th and the first mention of it on MOU-NET or the MOU-RBA listserv was on July 30th - 5 days later through the weekly RBA updates (same thing happened with the Worm-eating Warbler earlier this year). If it were not for the weekly recap and Diane's posting, how many people would know about and be able to see this beautiful bird. Can someone tell me what the point of either listserv is if almost nobody reports rare birds on it anymore? -- Derek Bakken [log in to unmask] ornitholature.blogspot.com Please contribute your sightings to our list; it is only as good as members make it!
