Eastern Kingbirds are reported from late-April through August. The species is a common breeder and is sometimes present in large groups during migration. They are typically found in fairly open areas with some trees and are commonly observed perched out in the open. Rose Valley Lake is a very reliable spot to find them during migration and in the summer, and Mill St. gets good numbers during migration, but doesn't seem to get many breeding pairs.
