Howard this morning. This is the first record of this bird for the mountain and the third record for the state. The bird was actively feeding by the saddle and directly across the road for most of the morning and afternoon. Many observers were able to see the bird and relocate it, as well as get photos. The last report was at 3:30pm near the saddle. Thanks Pierre for finding such a beautiful bird! Deb Z.
