This morning while eating breakfast on our back deck overlooking a private golf course, I observed a first year Gray Flycatcher. The overall gray color, 2 wide buffy wing bars, and the distinctive tail-dipping action of the bird were distinctive. The bird was using the scattered pine trees on the edge of the golf course, staying low (1-5 feet), sallying forth to flycatcher and then returning to the tree. Several times the bird went to the ground and then returned low to a pine tree. Only once in the 15 minutes I watched did the bird go above 5 feet.
