Davie, in speaking of the nest of the Acadian Flycatcher, says: "In the manner of attachment it resembles the nests of the vireos, being fastened by the rim, while the bottom is unsupported;" it is made of grasses, weeds, seeds, and shreds of bark, and is frequently suspended over running water. The eggs, numbering only 2 or 3, are buff, with spots and specks of reddish brown, chiefly round the larger end. Size--.74 x .54. These birds are found mostly in the dense forest regions, where they breed early in June. The nests are often found in the witch-hazel bush.
