The bird has a big headed appearance suggestive of Least, but this could be due to its posture. The lack of eyering suggests Traill's (Alder/Willow). Definitely an Empid, possibly a Traill's. The person that stated the only one possible in Florida is Least is incorrect. We get more Alders than Least in our area, with some Acadians, and the occasional Yellow-bellied and Willow, in addition to Least.
