Actually I never saw them in North America and my only encounter was of a vagrant on the German Baltic sea coast.
There you go.

At least I haven't! Going out there this week to try again. Just how many years has it been?

Some experiences I remember better than others. This one is one I still have a pretty good memory off, at least of the bird itself. It helps that they're so striking!

You write beautifully..I could imagine in my mind what type of area you found these in.

What a Beautiful bird!
