Hi Maggie,That's an interesting observation, but it's highly unlikely that it was an Olive-sided Flycatcher, as they are generally late migrants, and the entire population should still be in South and Central America, and don't show up in Maine until Mid May. I suspect it was merely an odd looking Phoebe, which is the only flycatcher likely to be around the next few weeks.David RankinOn Tue, Apr 9, 2013 at 9:06 AM, Maggie Strickland <gallinasviejas@gmail.com> wrote:
--Just stepped out onto the back porch for firewood when I noticed what I at first thought was an E. Phoebe in a bush near the feeders. As I stood there with my arms full of wood, however, I realized the bird had a more distinct, but smaller white "vest" area and seemed darker overall than phoebes I have seen. By the time I got the wood inside and got the bins, it was gone...Maggie StricklandHarmony ME--
