  1. Hi Robert
    Bob Long here, living in the good East Toronto neighborhood of West Rouge.

    I am a semi-birder....always got an eye out for the birds.

    A few months ago a Rufous-sided Towhee landed on my deck in the backyard (I took a picture). I have not seen one of these birds for over 50 years when I saw for my first time, in the fall hundreds migrating.

    I see that you saw an Ash Throated Flycatcher in Arizona this year.

    Yesterday I spotted a bird that I had not seen before land in my old spruce tree in the backyard. I got out my video camera and captured it sitting on a branch for over a minute.

    I checked through my Stokes and it seems to be a Ash Throated Flycatcher. The discription says that it is rarely seen on the east coast and provinces. Perhaps the tornados and high winds blew this guy into Toronto.

    I can send video, or easier, frame capture shots of this bird for your identification.

    Cheers Bob Long
