Hi MassBirders,

Two more good ones reported the past couple of days. This morning, Kevin Buckland photographed an apparent Gray Kingbird near (appropriately) Gray’s Beach, Yarmouthport, Cape Cod. His photo was posted on FaceBook in a group where it should be visible to non-FaceBook viewers:

Yesterday, Liam Norton photographed a Harris’ Sparrow at Mass Audubon’s Daniel Webster Wildlife Sanctuary in Marshfield:

Several folks searched without success for the sparrow after it was reported yesterday. I have not yet heard any updates about efforts to relocate the kingbird.

Good birding!

Josh
