I'm interested in this bird also. I had a look last night without any luck
and not many Little Raven's either. Unfortunately can't have another look
today but I'm hoping someone else tracks it down if it's there. I actually
emailed the birder that found it but haven't received a reply yet. I know
at least half a dozen birders went down last night without luck...
