I've lived in this state for over 50 years and have never seen one of these here before. I thought this was a cormie when it flew in and landed. I'm awful glad I took a second look. Needless to say, it's a first for me.

Thanks for looking.

Crazy weather, crazy storms and so no surprise these guys have no clue where they are going. I guess their inner GPS sometimes get screwed up and we get lucky...nice one Gary!
