Above: This late post shows a "Traill's Flycatcher" in Howard Co., Maryland (7/20/2006). "Traill's Flycatcher" is the term used to describe an Empidonax flycatcher that is either a Willow or Alder Flycatcher. These two species are very difficult to distinguish except by voice, and so in fall migration can be very tough to identify. Until the 1970s, the two species were considered one species: Traill's Flycatcher.
