ACADIAN FLYCATCHER 



MAY 30, 1907. Watched two on the 

 barn fence for a long time. They 

 tilt their tails as the phoebe does, only it 

 is a much more nervous and rapid motion 

 than the phoebe's. A wood pewee was on 

 the same fence uttering his sweet wail 

 many times, and I could compare the two 

 to great advantage. The Acadian looked 

 so small and green beside the pewee. His 

 wings were so barred and his eye ring so 

 noticeable.
