For any STL city birders that are not on the Discord group there’s an Eastern whip-poor-will perched on a branch on the far west end of the Gaddy Garden that has been sitting there all day long, originally found by Iris Gibson. If you go to the bench on west end (not the one by bubbler!) and find the batch of 5 cherry trees pretty much across from it on south side of path, follow the leftmost cherry tree up and search it’s branches directly above the trail. Bird is sitting up on the limb rather than laying down trying to look like a bump on a branch. It’s been seen by many today and is still there…
Good find by Iris this morning!
