Hi, everyone.
Update on the Lesser Goldfinch -- We last saw it twice on Friday Aug 15, but we've been away on a family reunion since then and have only been at the house briefly a couple of times a day. We will be watching for it again now, and I'll post an update when we know if it's still around.

We checked frequently today, and two visiting birders kept watch from 10:30 to 1:30 and from 3:00 until 7:25, when the bird finally came to the feeder for a few minutes.
Yesterday a birder saw him just after 8:00 am, and we did not see him again all day, despite frequent checking.
The average wait time is definitely getting longer, but he is still around.

One wonders if he'll catch a ride with the migrants. I bet if he stays past September he'll winter at the feeders.
I keep extending that line for this sighting on the checklist! Keep us posted!
