Individual in "female" (non-breeding of course) plumage. Seen forging in a ravine, near busy roads inside of small city Park. Sallying forth from two Wax Myrtle shrubs, to "flycatch". Distinct flight pattern - darting out, spreading wings and tail, half circles back to one of the two shrubs. Also used other saplings nearby. Fence kept us from getting closer than ~20 m. I had a Canon SX50 camera. I did not notice some rain spots on the lens when taking a few "average" pictures. We then did playback and the bird responded aggressively - but it flew in above us then ascended trees and into the canopies, nearly above us. Terrible lighting and angles. Bird now ~40' up. Continued to sally-glean from those higher limbs, mostly from outer limbs. My first reaction was Blackpoll but I did not say anything to my compatriot. I just asked her to look at various features (She had commented: "it looks like a Pine W but a little different; when she first found it). We both agreed later that we saw darker dorsal streaks, and rather pale feet (toes); and an underside unlike other Pines we've seen. We are very familiar with Pine Warbler in our area as they visit our suet feeders regularly. There is also a very all patch of non-native bamboo near a small bridge that crosses the east end of the Park lake, and the water flows underneath, into the ravine. The bird was last seen dropping into this bamboo about 4:30pm. I expect it will hang around this area. Brian O'Shea commented and as I understand it, he asked at least one other colleague; and they agree with our ID. Thus I am now adding it to this list.
