Hi MDBirders!
I just wanted to make it clear that I wasn't trying to withhold info on this awesome species from the Google Group--I had just wanted to post some pictures on Facebook for ID confirmation in case I was way off base. The bird only stayed 5-10 minutes and was foraging on the ground beneath the pine tree in my backyard; it didn't appear to be associated with any other birds. The backyard is unfenced, so you're welcome to come by the side of the house and take a look tomorrow, but as far as I can tell it has moved on from my yard. As Dan mentioned, I think the McKenney Hills park would probably be a good spot to check if it hasn't moved out of the area yet!
Thanks!
