Observation details
**Very rare in Florida. A Traill’s-type Empid vocalizing with “WHIT” calls. Difficult to compare to WHIT calls of LEFL but hopefully spectrogram yields more clues and physical structure and bill size eliminate LEFL as possible ID anyways. Medium primary projection (and WHIT calls) eliminate ACFL as possible ID. Fairly long bill for a non-Acadian, but slightly longer bill is consistent with WIFL. Indistinct eyering also consistent with WIFL. Responded immediately to playback of WIFL “whit” calls by…flying to a branch and posing for the photographs I have uploaded here. Exact location where last seen: (29.5781878, -82.2665745)—around .5 miles west of the Eastern trailhead for Cones Dike Canal (aka the Camps Canal entrance). Observed with Ben Fick, who also heard it vocalize near us several times with WHIT calls. Filmed/photographed and audio recorded.
