Ani: negative so far
1:50 pm
No further signs of the Groove billed Ani at the Aviara Resort in Carlsbad Since the original sighting by Jane and her original one or two quick photos. At least 20 people looking. She saw it fly down a short distance on the same line of trees and brush to the southwest and it was hoped that it’s still in that line, but it cannot be found as of 1:45 p.m.. If it goes farther afield from that one line then it’s just habitat everywhere else in all directions and would probably be hopeless. If not seen this afternoon, it would definitely be worth trying here in the morning when it’s cool and concentrate on sunny spots.
