Three of us (Mark Brennenger, Igor Uhrovic and myself) saw the Tropical
Kingbird today, 11/2, in Tokeland, from about 1:40 PM till 2:10 PM. This
time the bird was near 8th & Kindred, a few blocks south of its location on
11/1. We got great looks at it, from all angles, and heard its attractive
metallic-sounding series of short notes, pip-pip-pip-pip, run together. We
were fortunate to get such great views and to hear it call so many
times. The bird was still in the general area when I left; I and others
searched for several hours before finding it.

Thanks to others who posted re earlier sightings and for cooperative group
effort today.
