     I live in Colesville, MD with a yard GREAT for birding.  No nesting 
     orioles this year (last year there were 3 pairs!), but there is a pair 
     of flycatchers that must have a nest nearby--they are constantly in 
     the yard & vocalizing.  Unfortunately, I'm more of a birder wannabe, 
     and can't identify what kind of  they are.  Would anyone nearby be 
     interested in identifying them for me?  I work at home on Mondays & 
     Fridays, but wouldn't necessarily need to be there--come up the drive 
     & park on the space to the left.  If the flycatchers aren't in front, 
     walk around garage & holly tree to back yard, which extends in a 
     triangle to a point at the top of the hill (beyond fenced-in area).
     Many thanks if anyone is interested.
