HI Two adult dark morph birds just flew into Oak Par Cemetery, counterintuitively from the north, and I get the impression that they are roosting in the trees of the cemetery, proper (so you can be here with a camera tomorrow morning when they lift off). I am on cemetery property, but in the northern unkempt grassy area looking for Lawrence's Goldfinches. This morning in my neighborhood vaguely half a mile west of here I had what looked like an immature light morph bird also flying at rooftop level. I hate it when they are sneaky like that.
