Local weather in Montour is going to change tonight – here’s our weather station from a few miles west of there in case anyone wants to track the rain.

We just left at 730pm after 2+ hours with ~10 folks.  Apparently no sightings since ~noon … maybe it uses a different area in afternoon/evening?

Jason T is planning to try again early AM 🤞🤞🤞

Hi Liz,

Wow, what a find, enjoyed looking at your pictures! :).  Glad to hear that it has been verified, you are a rock star!   Now, what we need this winter from this area is a Northern HawkOwl :).  Hope you are enjoying your summer, mine has been busy with doing stuff around the house and garden, taking a couple of camping trips, and creating 33 new routes for the project this winter, yikes, more work!:).  Take care,

Jeff

Very happy to have this confirmed and thanks to Denise and Cheryl for accelerating that this a.m.  

Attaching two point and shoots, and I would love to hear a caption for the one giving me the stink-eye.

Repeating here again, bird trials at Montour this weekend.  Imagine this is an extremely short window.  Bird likes to perch on dead snags in the open near mid-canopy maples.  Walk in thicket west of post fence in west parking lot and hopefully you will get a view.

Cheers,

I was just told there is going to be dog trials at Montour on Saturday and Sunday.  Probably best to look before then.

We saw the bird in the area around the parking area at the west entrance of the WMA.  Check the dead branches on the deciduous trees, about 1/2 to 2/3 up the tree.

Liz Medes reports that the Great Crested Flycatcher, that she found yesterday, is still present at Montour WMA (Gem County) this morning.  This will represent the second record for Idaho, pending IBRC acceptance.

Good Birding,

Yes, the P on Shalerock, stands for perfect place to park, peek, and take pics of pflycatchers.

Good luck one and all.

I tried and failed to place an arrow on that southwest corner lot on Shalerock Road.  This is what’s known as being a local…, “you can’t miss it!”
