Paul reported it to eBird and the next morning when I walked down to the park there were already people milling about searching the trees. We have occasionally checked the neighborhood since, but the bird has proven to be a "one day wonder".

Me and Paul

Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words. And of course, Willie Nelson's tune "Me and Paul" hits the right chord.
