Hi John, and Nancy,

There have been a number of additional sightings since Tufts was published.=
 I would expect Summer Tanagers to be reported now and then along the South=
shore and offshore islands (Particularly on BP and Seal which have birders =
on the lookout through much of the year).

All the best,

Lance

I think there have been more sightings since Tufts.  We saw one at Melbourn=
e (Yarmouth County) church back about 1987.

Summer tanager? The colour is right.

Robie Tufts cited three appearances in NS, one in October and two in April =
- 1913 and 1937. The 1913 one was found dead.

Also Hartlen Point, 2009. Can't remember what month.

The Robie Tufts note is downloadable from https://sora.unm.edu/node/17765.

I have a question for you birders. A friend in on Meadow Pond Lane, just as
you come out of Liverpool toward White Point, in Queens Co. has been seeing
a bird he can't find in his books. He is sure it is a Grosbeak. He would be
familiar with them. The bird is all red, like a Cardinal but it is not a
Cardinal, for sure, he said. It is travelling with a Rose-breasted Grosbeak=
.
Has anyone else seen anything like this?
He will try to get a photo but he said his camera isn't a good one and the
feeder is a bit distant. He hasn't seen it today, he did see it (them)
several times over the past week.
