Today I was able to ID a bird I'm guessing I'd seen many times before but never was able to confirm because until now I'd never heard one sing: an Alder Flycatcher. I was surprised and pleased to see and hear this life bird, but when I went back to post on ebird, I was shocked to discover proof of how absolutely topsy turvy this Spring is due to the warm weather. There are no previous ebird reports for it in any March anywhere in the United States, and no listings of it in Ohio even in April. Incredible. In addition to the Flycatcher, the cemetery also provided one woodock, five golden-crowned kinglets, a FOY white-throated sparrow, and many song sparrows, juncos and flickers.
