A female turned up in New York! One of my first unusual NY sightings in a while! Yellow-headed Blackbirds are just about annual and may breed in the future in upstate NY, but they are slightly less common vagrants to Long Island, where this bird is, at Jones Beach state park.
Plenty of other things there too, like Black Skimmer and Piping Plovers, and even a very late/early Brant.
