: I'd appreciate any comments about how rare such a bird is this time of year. Thanks.

They're quite rare in summer, rarer than Robins, but less rare that Hermit Thrushes. Stevenson and Anderson mention ca. 10 summer reports anywhere in Florida. 2 additional reports appeared in FFN in the 90s. Most summer sightings are from the panhandle. Only one was in Monroe county, at Whale Harbor on June 27, 1954.
