Birders,
An apparent Dark-sided Flycatcher was found this morning at Charleston Marsh in Santa Clara County and is still being seen this afternoon. Exact location of the bird is here: 37.4211198, -122.0729803. Parking is apparently limited. Original eBird report here (under Empidonx sp.): https://ebird.org/checklist/S273917582. This would be a first California record, if confirmed, so of course the CBRC would appreciate documentation: https://www.californiabirds.org/report_sighting.html.
