I did a quick check of Peterjohn (2001) and there are no sightings of this species up to that writing. Very interesting. Can't wait to see your pictures.

I have unclear pictures I took today (1-28-2012) but I believe strongly that according to my books recorces, that this is exactly what I saw. ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
