I agree with Paul that in the local area, Acadian Flycatchers have been common the entire Spring. Birds are plentiful along the C&O Canal from Pennyfield Lock past mile post 24. I have also seen and heard them on an ongoing basis at Seneca State Park and Meadowside Nature Center. I don't know whether this counts as the Piedmont though. Chris Barnard cbarnard52@aol.com
