Saturday 6:30 am update bird is still present. Couple from down country
says Alder. ( My normal Alder calls fritz or fritz-bew) will try to
record all 3 flycathers to send in with documentation. This bird is doing
the same vocalization as the recorded and documented one of 2012, that one
only stayed for 3 days before moving on.
