[Maine-birds] Possible long-tailed flycatcher (Benton)

Driving along the Neck Road, a gray bird with a very long tail flew across the road in front of our car and disappeared into the swampy area adjacent to the gas station (Kencove?  Country Store?)  It appeared to continue through the swampy area into the fields beyond.  The tail was extremely long in relation to the bird's body.  We stopped and had a brief try at relocating it but were not successful (and had milk in the car and no binoculars, to boot)  Anyone driving along that stretch might want to keep their eyes peeled, though.
