Willow Flycatcher in Wilton

The Willow Flycatcher who has visited the last few springs is apparently
spending the summer.  It's calling from the phragmites at the southern end
of Spectacle Brook Swamp, just north of the dam which is reachable down the
hill from Gilly Lane cul-de-sac.

By the way, anyone who knows a good contact for large scale phragmites
eradication, please email me.  I'm willing to contribute time and money to
preventing the loss of this swamp's diversity.
