It did not use the rail fence at all but mostly stayed in the sycamore branches overhanging the seawall on the SW side of the fort. One of its favorite perches was just a few feet from an occupied Eastern Kingbird nest. At one point it flew into the wetland area. It's very vocal and easily located by call and song.
