When I left about 12:30, many people were observing it fairly close to the parking lot, in an uncultivated field at the edge of a crop field on the left side of the gravel road/path. There is a stagnant irrigation ditch and a string of tall mounds of dirt.The bird was in the field beyond the cultivated field. Earlier, the bird was seen from the grassy trail on the other side of the field. Yvonne HomeyerSt. LouisEl lun, 28 abr 2025 a las 9:24, Monacell, Peter L. (<plmonacell...>) escribió:

CAUTION!: This email originated from outside of Columbia College. Bird still there at 1:30. Park in Walker Island parking lot, were the gate to the campground is closed, and walk the gravel path that has yellow tubes on the cable that keeps cars out. Walk to where the tall brush is on both sides. Bird was working both sides with many Eastern Kingbirds . Bird was keeping very low most of time. There were also Bobolinks in the distance.

A Fork-tailed Flycatcher was first observed yesterday afternoon at Horseshoe Lake in Madison County, IL just across from St. Louis. It was relocated this morning and has been being seen reliably by many observers. The bird is hanging out with several Eastern Kingbirds at apx: 38.69394, -90.07999.
Good luck,
