No swallows today, only 2 on sat. Stopped by again this am. fairly early (6:15) was just getting out of car when I heard " three beers" a rich, clear song. Hmmm. It has been a while. Hopped out. Then I heard "quick 3 beers" ahhh. then saw the individual on top of a poplar.. Distinct white rump patch. Sweet !! Olive-sided flycatcher. Lots of redstarts and chesnutsideds around. Visited the Mystery Trail too. Nothing outrageous, but a fellow said he saw and heard a blue-winged warbler.I never saw or heard it. Magnolias, CSwa's, alder flyc.
