Unless you SEE the acadian these records are questionable and highly
unlikely.  At McKee-Beshers WMA in Montgomery Co acadians don't arrive until
late April.
        This is the time of year people start reporting calling wood pewees
and all they are hearing is STARLINGS giving a good imitation.

Subject: [MDOSPREY] Acadian FC and Soldiers Delight


I briefly went to Soldier Delight yesterday to look for my possible Acadian
Flycatcher but no luck. Overall the birds were much quieter than earlier
this week. I will try again later this week.

Interestingly, one of the park rangers at Soldiers reported to me that she
heard an Acadian in PVSP Hollofield region (without knowing about my
possible sighting). I asked her to email the sighting to MDOSPREY.

Overall, I'm still hesitant due to time of year, but it would be interesting
if anyone else sees/hears a potential Acadian in the next week or so.
