Jane & I have had a pair of Great-crested Flycatchers nest in our yard this
summer.  This is the first time we've seen this species in the yard and
certainly the first time we've known of a nest.  They chose an unusual
location.  We have a large bell in the yard that was the farm bell for my
great-grandparents farm.  It's now mounted on a frame make of square steel
tubing.  Attached are a couple of shots to give you an idea of the nest
location.
