I went to Luck Hammock this morning and found what I think is a La Sagra's Flycatcher. Initially it was found moving through bushes fairly low to the ground. I moved closer to try and get a look when it flew to a tree in the hammock. When it flew I could clearly see there was little or no yellow on the belly. When it landed I looked through my binoculars and thought to myself, this is a La Sagra's. The bird was smaller than a Great Crested next to it and it was a lighter color brown than the Great Crested. I tried to get some decent photos, but the conditions were less than good.

The bird never called and once it dropped into the hammock I was unable to relocate it. I went to the Annex to see what was there and stopped at lucky on my way out, but no luck then either. I would have stayed longer but had to get to work....

I plan to return and relocate the bird and hopefully hear it call.

I would appreciate your thoughts
