Observation details
I was convinced this was the HAFL found by Ron Thorn yesterday, but he kindly corrected me. A case of expecting/wanting to see something and then overlooking other possibilities (a learning moment for sure!). Best/closest views of this species I have had, and I won't forget it! Found it flycatching at the N lookout (merchant marine memorial) moving around the area downhill, using bare branches and usually not returning to same perch. Harassed often by male ANHU. Vocalized infrequently; a hoarse peer? a few times (maybe in response to ANHU?), I thought I heard other calls but now not sure, it was difficult to hear and impossible to record due to planes and shooting range.
