Least Flycatcher (Empidonax minimus) (1)
- Reported Jun 21, 2024 12:52 by Zia Fukuda
- Provolt REC SITE ZONE A, Josephine, Oregon
- Map: http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&t=p&z=13&q=42.2903222,-123.2303143&ll=42.2903222,-123.2303143

- Comments: "Confining rarity originally found by Elijah Hayes.  Identified by repeated "che-bek" calls before getting a crummy look through the willows. It was moving back and forth on the far side of the old river bed just off the trail.  Stayed up towards top of willows when moving around.  Called repeatedly when first arriving but had stopped calling by end of time spent looking for it."
