I went to check out the Acadian Flycatcher reported by Caleb A.
yesterday. I did hear what I believe was the flycatcher in the exact
spot described by Caleb. The bird was not seen but seemed to be
hanging out in a stand of large Eastern Cottonwood trees. Airplane
and highway noise didn't help the matter. Besides looking for the
flycatcher I was impressed by this little nature preserve which I had
never visited before. It was quite active in spite of visiting at
mid-day.
