I finally spotted the Willow Flycatcher (year bird number 186) I've been hearing in the bushes behind my house for the last week. And all of a sudden the Grasshopper Sparrows have arrived--I'm hearing them almost constantly in the grassy field where they were absent until yesterday. After some effort, I got a good look at a Grasshopper Sparrow (year bird number 187) calling from the top of a small tree.
