The spelling should be MacGillivray's. It's an Oporornis, same family as Mourning and Connecticut, but it's a mostly western bird and uncommon in Florida. Try a search with this spelling. The bird was an immature I believe, but the eye crescents were very distinct.

In addition to the MacGillivray's and Blue-winged this morning, there was a Blackburnian, plus Redstarts, Parulas, Prairies, BTB's, B&W's, Ovenbirds, Yellowthroateds, and a Cape May. This is the second time this year that I go to the northern part of the park looking for a Pine Warbler and find a Blue-winged instead!

"Shoot!"
