Charlie-
IMO, this bird is not an early migrant.  The earliest RTHU records that
I know of are from late March, and they are only just now returning to
the Gulf Coast.  My opinion is that this bird is a winter bird that is
on the move - and probably not a RTHU.  Did you get a good enough look
to make any sort of tentative identification?
