The ST Flycatcher is hunkered down in a large shrub (maybe a plum, with reddish leaves) on the north side of US287, evading the 50 mph wind gusts. This is across the road from the entrance to Forks Lumber. Other birders showed it to me, so I will hang for a while in case more birders show up. There is a safe pullout on the south side of the road (northbound side).
