Maybe this news has already been disseminated via other social media channels, but I thought it warranted a post here as well: An eBird statewide rarity alert went out Thursday of a VERMILLION FLYCATCHER, reported from Erie County. Granted, not a confirmed sighting (no photos), but one would think that even the possibility of a rare bird the magnitude of a Vermilion Flycatcher would generate some interest, follow-up, and a post on the Genesee listserv, at the very least. I can't be the only one who received the eBird alert, so if anyone has further news to pass along it would be much appreciated.
