Having gotten tired of repeated disappointments at the Station Road location, I decided to check some of the other spots in the greater West Danby area that have hosted Acadians in the past. First stop: lower Michigan Hollow. Pat and I parked just north of the place where the south leg of the Abbott's Loop trail crosses the road. As soon as we opened the car doors we had the songs of an ACADIAN FLYCATCHER in one ear and a LEAST FLYCATCHER in the other. The Acadian was singing all around the mouth of the shady hemlock ravine that comes into the hollow from the west at this point. The trail passes right through there and proceeds up the south rim of the ravine. Always an interesting spot for forest birds, including Blackburnians, Canada Warblers, Hermit Thrushes, Blue-headed Vireos, etc.
