Extralimital Yellow-rumped Marshbird (1 Viewer)

[Oregonian]

Lee and I found a Yellow-rumped Marshbird in Tucuman Province, well west of the normal range. Here is our photo, from Tafí del Valle, Tucumán, Argentina. Is vagrancy known in these marshbirds?

I assume we have the identification right. Are they held in captivity?

Thanks for information,
Jeff

Can't see any problem with ID and I would guess that vagrancy is most likely explanation. (I've seen Brown & Yellow Marshbird in captivity in UK about 30 years ago, but I feel that information is of limited value here!)

Cheers
