I also thoroughly scanned both the South and East landfills not long after
Bill and also did not find the Least Tern (with my 60x lense). Thinking it
might just be off foraging somewhere nearby, I asked a friend to phone me if the
bird was reposted and I just birded Rochester for awhile. Sure 'nuff. I
got the call at 4:30, got over to the South Landfill by 4:45 and enjoyed great
looks at the Least Tern until I left at 5:30.
I appreciate very much, those posts letting me know if a bird was or was not
refound. I can then make an informed decision about how to spend my gas
dollars and my time. There have been good birds with no status reports at all,
and it feels like a real shot in the dark sometimes. So, Bill, no need to
apologize!
While birding Rochester, I heard a very talkative Virginia Rail at what I
believe the locals refer to as the 9th St. Marsh (east of Cty 22 on Cty 9).
