Subject: [SanDiegoRegionBirding] Scissor tail update
At 1:10 p.m. the scissor-tail flycatcher flew out of that extremely large, single Norfolk pine/ star Pine and headed in the direction of the airport, but it probably didn't go all that far but I have no idea exactly where it went, as I was blocked.
As one can see in the photos in the e-bird list by the finder earlier this morning. This bird has a moderately long tail and lots of orangey buff on the flanks.
As mentioned in the previous post, every fall and winter, there is a Cassin's Kingbird roost somewhere at the north end of Liberty Station in the trees near the Corvette Diner or the golf course, so I'd recommend being there the last hour of light or at dawn.
