I checked Leonard Rd. yesterday near Shindagin Hollow but found no Acadian Flycatcher (rats!). It's a beautiful drive up--so thanks to Stuart and Anne Marie for inspiring me to visit. I did hear a mystery bird, which I recorded with my cell phone (sorry!)--see link (you don't have to join

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Mystery Song

Hi all, This is an aberrant song from a Louisiana Waterthrush that's living in that area. Bob McGuire found it in April and made several recordings, then Jay McGowan and I took a trip up to record it as well. It's a cool bird! On Thu, Jun 2, 2016 at 7:57 AM Sandy Podulka
