RBA: CITRINE WAGTAIL

The Citrine Wagtail, Canada's first (and only the second for the ABA Checklist Area), and originally found by David and Adele Routledge, continues in Courtenay was seen again on March 04, 2013. The Wagtail was seen by a birder from Oregon, two birders from Montana, two birders from Parksville and two birders from Nanoose Bay, it was feeding at the far end of the trail near the second row of bushes on the left side of the trail. It was feeding in the mud trail in the field for about one hour then it flew through the bushes and started feeding on the cornfield along the old cornstalks.
