Ash-Throated Flycatcher is still hanging around St. Martin's Chapel in Biddeford Pool as of this morning.   First spotted it about 10:15, briefly, in a tall tree to the left of the gray house which is behind the cemetery and chapel. It was partially obscured by tree limbs and a squirrel but appeared to be preening its feathers.  Later,  saw it in the same general area but much lower down in a small bare tree next to the edge of the lawn.  It would fly in and out of the brush very low to the ground as it attempted to catch something and then fly back into one of the bare trees to sit for awhile.  Then it would disappear and in a little while fly out of the brush again and repeat the cycle.   Seen by several other birders and confirmed by photographs and through a spotting scope.
