Below: A juvenile Great Crested Flycatcher was our best find on Assateague Island (11/13/2011). This first November record for Worcester Co. was many times over less likely than an Ash-throated Flycatcher. Nearly all of our Great Crested Flycatchers depart by October, and any November Myiarchus is much more likely to be a western vagrant Ash-throated. It was spotted by Kevin Graff and carefully identified by our team in the state park. It eventually confirmed our impression of field marks with three diagnostic "Weeeep!" calls. It was successfully chased by the Assateague and Route 611 parties. Incredible!
