Détails de l'observation
Continuing, thanks to original finder Alan Drogin and for Ian Bell’s refind yesterday. I started the morning periodically returning to the ginkgos at the intersection of Bank and Hudson (40.7367734, -74.0058431) where Ian had seen the bird 12/5 afternoon, then branching out to side streets since this birds patterns have been mysterious to be sure. I read about vagrant flycatchers eating sap and saw a sapsucker freshly feeding on the American elm near the ginkgos so I decided to get a coffee and post up at the now sun-lit ginkgos and elm tree, and within just a few minutes had the flycatcher fly in from the west. Myiarchus flycatcher, i'm no expert but Ash throated by overall drabness, low contrast and paleness, particularly at throat, relative to great crested or others. Not so big and bushy of a head and also bill seems right. Also far and away the most likely Myiarchus for December in Northeast, per ebird records Watched for a while. Silent unfortunately. It did not appear to be feeding on sap but instead actively fly-catching, alternating with sitting for minutes at a time deep in the canopy of the elm, often hidden from view. Occasionally it would fly into the bare larger ginkgo. Photos.
