Spent a very enjoyable day learing "birding by ear" in the field from J.
Wallace Coffey and Chris O'Bryan.  Highlights were finding a Least
Flycatcher singing near a nest in a marshy thicket in Shady Valley and
being able to compare the song to a singing Alder Flycatcher at Whitetop
Station. Also heard singing were Northern Parula and Canada Warblers.

and Chris had a few more.
