Thanksgiving Birding... Bring A Fork!


Fork-tailed Flycatcher in Stamford, CT... second state record! About the closest these guys normally get to here is southern-most Texas, but occasionally they wander north, often winding up on the coast of the Atlantic. This one stuck around for over a week, giving holiday travelers like myself a great pit stop! During the time I was there, I talked to birders from New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, even as far as Chicago!
