Re: [Maine-birds] Re: mystery bird

it was definitely not an Eastern Kingbird. It had one or two completely white outer tail feathers, not a white band extending across the tips of all of the tail feathers. The overall shape of the kingbird is similar to what i saw, but it definitely had brown upperparts and central tail feathers, not the dark gray of a kingbird. I was only able to see it through a for a few seconds, from inside my living room. I went outside after it flew off to try and find it, but had no luck. I was also unable to obtain photographs, and heard no vocalizations.
My yard is not very big, with a lawn made of mostly grass, Common Plantain, and dandelion leaves, with about 8 large, spaced-out Red Maples and 1 large fir. I live in Topsham.
