8/9/11 Murfree Spring Wetland Rutherford Co. With about an hour of free time at my disposal yesterday, I did a quick run-through of the wetland around the Discovery Center in Murfreesboro, on the off chance that I might run into something of interest. As it turns out, I did see an odd flycatcher that was giving a very loud call that sounded a little bit like the classic "what-cheer" call you'd hear from a cardinal. (The "ch" sound in the middle was not as pronounced as a cardinal though, if that makes any sense.) Anyway, I listened to the call for several minutes and ignored it, assuming that it was just a cardinal. In any case, I saw the bird for about a minute from the back before it flew away. It had strong wing bars and generally looked like a pewee, but the primary projection seemed too short for a pewee and I've never heard a pewee give a call like that. Upon consultation of a few field guides, I see that Yellow-bellied Flycatcher (a bird I have zero personal experience with) gives a similar call to what I heard. I'm just curious if anyone has seen yellow-bellies at the wetland before and/or if the timing is even right for a migrant yellow-belly to be here. I apologize for my ignorance. I'm a western birder who hasn't quite figured out all the eastern birds that people around here probably take for granted :-) Daniel Estabrooks
