Chad Skaggs <chadskaggs@mindsdpring.com>, who is temporarily off the list, reports that he and Dana Buckelew saw the Scissor-Tailed Flycatchers at McDonough today. They watched for an hour late this morning as the adult male fed two fledged young. The young were near the top of a low, dead bush, or small tree, in the rough about 100 yards to the north of the tower which holds the nest. (With binoculars, a few twigs from the nest can be seen at the left end of the tower's bottom crossarm.) The two sat side by side for about 30 minutes. Then one left, and the other remained another half hour. Occasionally the adult sat with them, but most of the time it was out on forays from which it returned with food for the young. They saw only the male adult.
