adult, outside normal range
Shrewsbury - A pair of Magpies were building a nest in the cedars. They are well out of range, with the closest territory near the Manitoba border, about 1200 km northwest. Last year a pair, likely the same birds, bred 90 km further east.

male, adult, outside normal range
Murphys Point Provincial Park - Much farther east and north of the normal breeding range. This is certainly the same bird that was present singing for weeks at the exact same location last June. The song is unique and the plumage is greener than similar looking flycatchers like Willow and Alder.

female, adult
They have a nest nearby on a rock face. The female is noticeably larger than the male and this particular female is larger than others I've seen so she's at least 1/3 larger.
