Bird Identification?

This bird, about the size of an American Robin, appears to be quite common in Bermuda. I cannot find it in Silbey's book. Can anyone identify it? Thanks.

Great Kiskadee

Googled "birds of Bermuda" scrolled down and any group it might fit I checked the links.

It is 2/3 of the way down under tyrant flycatchers.

The "National Geographic Field Guide to the Birds of North America" (Pg. 354) shows that the native range of the Giant Kiskadee is along the coasts of Mexico and Central America but that hit was introduced to Bermuda. It doesn't specify when that happened.

Nice shot! A lot of commotion over this bird the past week or so...one was spotted and photographed for a few days in Rondeau PP on the north shore of Lake Erie in Southwestern Ontario. Apparently it's way out of its usual range!

In Costa Rica they are generically called "pecho amarillo" (yellow breast) - but apparently there are about 30-some similar birds in the same family.
