Livia and I had a singing and calling ACADIAN FLYCATCHER in the creek off Ford Hill Road in Lansing this morning. Myers Point was pretty quiet, although Dave Nicosia reported a Semipalmated Plover there later in the morning. No Ceruleans or other birds of note along Salmon Creek Road, but watching a female MOURNING WARBLER forage for a few minutes near the preserve was very cool. Another MOURNING WARBLER, this time a singing male, was near the first intersection at the Edwards Lake Cliff Preserve off Teeter Road. Ken's Prairie Warbler was still singing from the pine grove off Arrowwood Drive, and a Yellow-bellied Flycatcher called a couple of times here (and Ken had one near our yards this morning.) Blackpoll Warblers are everywhere, and I had a BLACK-BILLED CUCKOO fly over into Ken's yard when I stopped home for a minute. Fairy quiet and hot at lunch time here at the Lab, but a male BAY-BREASTED WARBLER was singing just before the Sherwood Platform, and Brad had Alder Flycatcher and Canada Warbler along Sapsucker Woods earlier in the morning.
