Ian and others,
You aroused my curiosity, so I did some browsing. It appears that Olive-sided
Flycatchers, like most neotropical migrants, raise one brood per year. Western
Birds' Nests, by Harrison, Peterson Series, suggests that they may, however,
make up to three nesting attempts if they experience failures. Anyway, here
are a few links; also, Birds of North America, No. 502, covers this species.
