- Comments: "Continuing on frisbee golf metal perch just northeast of lakeside restrooms. This is a bird I’ve seen multiple times in the east lake area, and is either the bird originally found by AY that moved from its mid park lakeside location, or is a second bird hanging around that I began finding in the east lake area, sometimes in lakeside shrubs and trees, sometimes in the forest grove to the north, and now on a metal perch where I have seen it three times now. Large black bill, lemony tum, yellow-green chest. Green back. No vocalizations. Bird flew west across road and perched nearby. Photo"
