Acadian Flycatcher

Dash to Dungeness to see the Empidonax flycatcher reported in the morning. Made it about an hour before dusk (hence bad photographs – much better ones here.) After some research at home before I left, and after seeing the bird, clearly an adult Acadian Flycatcher, a first for Britain, and the first live one in the Western Palearctic. Not bad for the last day of summer.
