Don't worry but this bird had temporarily become a vagrant (birding term used for birds that get lost while migrating and show up in areas way out of their normal seasonal locations) but have now returned to my normal range. Vagrant birds can be a delight to birders but sometimes is not so great for the bird itself. The new location might be an inhospitable environment or a location that the bird is not able to adapt. Luckily some vagrant birds do find their way back and get back into their migrational groove. So the good news is... this bird is back and whistling a happy tune that will soon come in the form of new information and photos of birds I see in my surrounding area :) So make sure to get out those binoculars and be on the lookout :)
