Observation details
*Mega rarity* After waiting about 1.5 hours on a cold Christmas morning, we finally saw the bird. Small, olive-gray back with blueish tail. White throat and underside with rust-orange flanks. White eyering. Bobbed it's tail when perched. Watched it for several minutes moving along hedgerow behind house 26A Spring Street. It paused long enough for photos. Continuing rarity, first found by homeowner Harry Riker, December 5, 2023. First record in eastern US. Seen by many observers.
