Sayornis phoebe
Brown and white flycatcher. This individual was pointed out to me by an experienced birder who said Phoebes used to be common at Huntley Meadows Park, but not so much in recent years.

You're right, Alice! These photos are post-processed RAW images. In order to "lift" detail from the bird's face, I adjusted the shadows until the photos looked unnatural, then backed off a little.
Beautiful, but their eyes seem to disappear, not just on yours, but others also.
Posando ando; dijo el galán alado, muy bello!!
