Good luck.

Birders,

For those interested there is a Northern Wheatear in Reading, Pennsylvania.
I figured I would post this email from PABIRDS because it is close to Delaware.

Ken Lebo just called to tell me that he was able to see a NORTHERN WHEATEAR that was just found by Michael Slater (I think this is the correct name, apologies if I got it wrong.) He says it is very buffy so probably a juvenile.

The bird is near the Reading Area Community College (RACC) along the Schuylkill River in Reading. It is south of the intersection of Franklin and Front Streets. Since most of the parking there is for RACC, the best bet is to try parking along Riverfront Dr and walking the short distance in.

Best of luck to anyone who goes to chase it!
