A Northern Mockingbird was reported near the Richland Airport on March 19 by
Steve Weiss. For awhile, that seemed to be the only observation of this
bird. Recently we were told that it had been seen again and reported to
Tony Greager (Bird sightings author for LCBAS).

On June 3, Ruth Fischer and Nancy were able to relocate the bird. It was
seen from Buckskin Loop Road, .4 miles from Van Giesen west of the bypass.
It seems to spend it's time on utility poles or feeding in nearby Mulberry
trees. Bill was able to find it at this location after work.
