spotted in Oregon

- Sightings of errant birds are often noted (or claimed). Maybe global warming makes a trip to North America from Sakhalin more feasible. That would seem to be a male of subspecies Monticola solitarius philippensis, which "has rufous-chestnut plumage from the mid-breast down to the undertail", according to WP. Did anyone see a female?
