Pat, the recording sounds like an ALDER FLYCATCHER to me!  And great  
report and photos, too.  Marg, were these cliff swallow nests at all  
like the ones on the girders at Port L'Hebert?  Cliff swallows in  
flight show squared off tails, compared with all the other swallows,  
and in the nest show the white above the beak.  Cheers from Jim in  
Wolfville
