My cell phone reception was bad up there and I wanted to actually write
more details. Everything you need is in the eBird report, above. The bottom
line is that you can arrive two hours before the monastery opens and find
a safe spot to park without blocking any of the roads up there and hang out
and have a chance at the bird before they open the gates.
