Is “obscure hotspot” (as in birding hotspot) an oxymoron? Let’s go with ‘under the radar,’ as with this field expedition last Saturday to lovely/quiet Fairview Gravel Pit Lake in Fairview Twp, Pennsylvania:
Took all summer + getting off the beaten path, but finally some nice shots of “more heard than seen” Red-eyed Vireo (e.g., typically high in the trees ensconced in the foliage).
Coming up next time, part 2 of It’s The Pits!
