Tweeters,



Some of us know that this species doesn't exist but after hearing that
classic Pacific-slope Flycatcher human like whistle, I proceeded to get
within closer range and see first hand the Pac-slope. This was at the very
back end of Eide Road on Leque Island. I couldn't believe my eyes (and
ears) when I located and noted a male Brown-headed Cowbird cloning that same
exact call. Grrrr.



I mention this especially to those submitting eBird lists what you hear may
not always be what you believe.
