Willow Flycatcher

Adult male Willow Flycatcher, Franklin Twp, NJ in May. Several areas in Franklin hold them, at least in part because Franklin Twp makes some effort to keep a fair amount of open space. Some of these grasslands are invaluable for declining birds like Grasshopper Sparrow and Bobolink, although Willow Flycatcher is a little more versatile and not under quite so much pressure as those two specialists.
