Common in the migration.

197 Helminthothaga luciae 4.1X6.5 ♀
D.sh. brown. Bill black above, bluish below.
Legs black. This is the first of this
species I ever saw. Was in a patch
of large willows (no undergrowth) along
a brook at the south lower end of
the cimoga. I mistook it at first
for a Tolihteta, which species its
actions somewhat resembled. It
acted somewhat like a Kinglet also,
feeding at the ends of the branches.
Restless, not shy. Heard one note.
Sweet.
