Oliveside Flycatcher

Altho ranging over the greater part of North America, the OLIVESIDE is nowhere common except in a few favored locations. They seem to select a certain territory outside of which they are rare or unknown. I have see them only four times in fifty years. A pair nested on our hillside in 1922 and the emphatic notes pe-pee were heard until the middle of July. I often saw their stocky forms on the tip of a wild cherry tree.
