This just came in on FLBIRDS. I hope for the best.
"We have just been notified about the following on TN-Bird, our Tennessee list, and below is the same alert from the Georgia list. We, probably like some Florida birders, had planned to go to Georgia and see this beautiful bird so I send this alert to avoid a wasted trip.

Bad news : Its wing is drooping and appears to be injured. This is a new development and may indicate that a predator attacked it. It seems to be trying to cough up something but can't. It appears weak and lethargic. I am told that a local rehabilitator is on the way and will decide whether to capture it for rehabilitation or leave it alone.
I will update the status as soon as something develops.
