Alabama’s second sighting for the Sulphur-bellied Flycatcher (Myiodynastes luteiventris) was recorded by John and Harriett Findlay on 27 September 1988 at Fort Morgan. It was first seen in the scattered pines around the picnic area just west of the ferry landing and parking lot, and was photographed in good light. Other birders from Alabama and adjacent states saw it during the 7 day period that the bird remained in the vicinity of the Fort Morgan grounds. It was last seen by the Findlays and others on 3 October.
