Denise, thanks for the update. I hope it found a cozy evergreen or cavity in which to spend the night. The temperature will need to warm a lot for the Vermillion to find insects flying around!

No one has seen the flycatcher so far today. But birders are still looking.

IBLErs,
A young male VERMILION FLYCATCHER was reported to eBird, today, from the Kingfisher Trail at Deer Flat NWR in Canyon County. All the currently available information (including photos) is contained in this eBird checklist: [ https://ebird.org/checklist/S61006099 | https://ebird.org/checklist/S61006099 ] .
There is one previous sight record for Idaho (January 2005 near Bonners Ferry), which the IBRC found not acceptable.. This will likely become the first fully-documented and IBRC-endorsed record for Idaho (pending acceptance).
Simply passing along this information. Additional details are likely to appear on Facebook (group: Idaho Bird Sightings and Discussion), and hopefully here on IBLE.
Good Luck and Good Birding!
