FYI, there is an Elaenia currently being seen in Illinois. It's likely
either White-crested (one previous ABA record) or Small-billed (none). The
key point is, if one can show up in Illinois, it could sure as heck show in
TN or KY. In fact, that bird likely passed through TN and KY on the way to
Illinois. So, think critically, don't assume, and above all else, when in
doubt, TAKE PICTURES. The Illinois bird was originally identified as a
weird empid but the observers (1) knew it was unusual looking even for an
empid, and (2) took lots of pictures that they then posted for others to
see.
