[mou-net] Acadian Flycatcher

[dzum...@comcast.net]

For one minute about 9:20 AM, I both saw and heard an Acadian Flycatcher 
singing about 1 mile west of the Old Cedar Avenue Bridge parking lot in the MN 
Valley NWR. The bird was singing in deciduous woods adjacent to a small stream. 
There is a 3 foot high cement block next to stream where the bird was singing. 
The bird just began singing again as I am writing this email at 9:38-9:39
