            On 6/4 Bob Williams reported an Orange Variant Scarlet =
Tanager
at Murphy-Hannrehan near the Horse Parking Area on Sunset Blvd. That =
same
day I little later, I heard a Tanager singing low right by the corner =
where
Sunset Blvd becomes 170th and Lower 167th goes off to the north. Dave
Calander happened by and also saw the bird [unfortunately and
uncharacteristically he didn=92t have his camera]. The bird we saw =
matched
pretty exactly the picture of the Orange Variant in Sibley, including =
the
wing marking. Before we left, the bird flew off to the east.

            I was going to report the bird when I got home, but after
reading that Bob had seen the bird earlier about =BD mile to the west, I
assumed to bird was just moving through. Today, however, I was driving =
west
on 170th.  Just after passing the house with the white pigeon coop, and =
less
then 0.1 miles from my last sighting, I heard the PIT-Churr sound of a
tanager on the south side of the road. I stopped, located the bird, and
behold it was, I assume, the same Orange-Variant Tanager. Its color is =
close
to that of a Baltimore Oriole, but not quite as deep an orange. I could =
not
see the wing marking this time, however. (I wonder is it can be =
concealed?).
