[CT Birds] "Western" Flycatcher, Osbornedale State Park, Derby

[Roy Harvey]

 From Roy Harvey, Nick Bonomo, and a whole bunch of other birders:
12/01 - Derby, Osbornedale State Park, meadow across the street from
the Kellog Center parking -- probable "Western" Flycatcher.  Bird was
first seen around 8:10 AM, and continued to be seen intermittently
but well until roughly 2:15.  It was feeding along almost the entire
north/west edge of the field at the edge of the woods/brush.  Most of
the time it was VERY close to the ground.

Thanks to Nick Bonomo for coming to check out my what-cound-this-be
phone call, and to Greg Hanisek for already posting on the
identification issues so that I don't have to pretend I can!   8-)

On the second map be sure to turn on the "hybrid" option.
