Sorry for the double post. Hey Balladares, I was wondering if what you were seeing around Lucky Hammock were Tree Swallows and not Bank Swallows like you mentioned in both your postings. Tree Swallows are abundant at this time of year (wintering) and are the ones that have been flying over that area, along with some Barn Swallows. Juvenile TRSW can be confused with BASW since they have a breastband, although more diffused. TRSW are bigger. Congrats on the flycatcher.

Cheers,
RJ
