Tweets,

Love to find out the name of the "local" that saw the 5 CRMY on July 5th.

Andy's observation of food being brought to the nest site is very
encouraging. It's the first such sighting I have heard this year.

A local resident of the area interviewed for an article appearing in a
magazine I browsed through last week indicated he has only seen 3 this
spring and other observers spending a few hours at a time at the site have
reported 1 or 2 at a time. The most recent observer I talked to had only 1
bird.

Hope the "local" observer Andy talked to was correct.
