Brad Walker and I relocated the Olive-sided Flycatcher from the south end
of the Podell Boardwalk at 9:15. We watched it make a few sallies, then
lost it when it headed east (towards Sapsucker Woods Road). It's probably
still in the area - Brad and Jay McGowan are trying now to re-relocate it.
On my way into the Lab of O this morning, I came in via the Podell
Boardwalk (the boardwalk that is along the trial system if you exit the
Lab’s public entrance and head straight south parallel to Sapsucker Woods
Rd. One of the birds that I saw was what I’m almost essentially sure
(aside from not having a good size reference for comparison) was an
OLIVE-SIDED FLYCATCHER. The bird was actively sallying out and
flycatching, always from the tops of dead trees away from the main forest
edge and never in the canopy.
