I went to Barr to search for the Magnolia Warbler.  I missed that bird but 
picked up one of the American Redstarts, many Sandhill Cranes, a couple of 
Brown Creepers and more of the usual assortment.  
 
On my way back to the car, while still on the lake side of the canal, I 
spotted flycatcher/phoebe type bird.  It started off in the picnic area and 
made its way north past the Praire Welcome Trail sign.  If it wasn't a 
juvenile Eastern Phoebe, it was most likely a Traill's Flycatcher; I'm not 
sure whether it was an Alder or Willow.  Willow would seem to be the more 
likely suspect.  A visiting birder from California believed it to be one of 
the Traill's type.  I have three distant photos on my flickr site if you 
want to join in the frustration.  
 
If anyone was out at Barr and happened to see this bird, I would welcome ID 
thoughts.
