Photographs were posted on eBird yesterday of a Fork-tailed Flycatcher seen in Palm Beach County, on US 441 at the intersection with Lantana Road. A link to the eBird checklist is below. Any updates regarding this sighting would be appreciated.

From what I understand from Facebook conversations, the photos used in the report were taken by someone else 2012. In other words, it seems like this is a bogus report.

Everything discussed on the Facebook thread last night pointed to this being a fake report. I live about 10 minutes from the reported location so I went out there at sunrise today just to check it out. Spent the morning driving north and south on 441 at least 10 miles in each direction of "812" (Lantana rd.) Not a flycatcher in sight.
I removed mention of the FTFL from my rare bird update.
