Birders,

As of 10:45 AM today, the staying but often difficult to re-find WESTERN KINGBIRD was not relocated as far as I know. Several birders on site looking but winds are high, likely keeping insects and the bird low to the ground.
One party on site had photographed a bird which may have been the one in question, but more study was needed as the photo was back lit.

That's all I know.
Good luck and please report if you re-find.

Best,
