Gary Kohlenberg and I observed a juvenile Olive-sided Flycatcher for half an hour this evening from the tower at the Durland Preserve. Much of the time the bird was perched atop a tall, thin snag from which it occasionally sallied out to snag some airborne prey. Much of the time it faced away but gave good glimpses of the white tufts on the sides of its rump. On occasion it would turn to face us, exposing a white belly and contrasting dark "vest". Thanks, Jay, for alerting us to the bird's presence. No sign of the Lawrence's Warbler though.
