Vermilion Flycatcher (Pyrocephalus rubinus) (1) CONFIRMED
- Reported Oct 06, 2024 10:43 by John Deacon
- Santa Maria Country Club (restricted access), Santa Barbara, California
- Map: http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&t=p&z=13&<q...>,-120.442061&<ll...>,-120.442061 - Checklist: https://ebird.org/checklist/S197815129 - Media: 1 Photo
- Comments: "Rosy color to lower breast and vent area. Actively hunting insects from reeds on pond at #5. I called it in with VEFL song. BLPH chased it off before I could get iPhone pic. We came back by later and saw it again. Poor iPhone pic. A second VEFL may be present too. Another flycatcher came in as we were leaving. Not a Phoebe."
