1. Ok, imagine a balloon, not tied off and you let the air escape by
pinching the opening with both thumb and forefingers, stretching it to make the
annoying squeak. Now imagine the squeak with a tempo of "ta-daah". Now let's
say this sound starts at dusk and lasts all night long, and continues even
while a goofy Finlander is stumbling through the woods with a flashlight, trying
to spy the culprits. There were at least two, and they let me - I mean that
goofy Finlander-to get within a few yards of them but was never able to spy
one. They flew from tree to tree. Once I was close, the "ta-daah" changed to
an ascending "skwik". I imagine they are young somethings but never got a
look. Any ideas?
2. Walking down for the paper yesterday, I was very impressed with the
birds.
Bay-breasted, Nashvilles, Mourning, Yellow, C.yellowthroat, Ovenbirds,
Black-throated green, Blackburnian, Tennessee, Chestnut-sided Warblers, Orioles,
RB grosbeaks, Solitary SP. Chipping, Clay-colored, Song and White-throated
sparrows, Gold finches, Purple Finches, House Finches, Pine-siskens and hummers
by the bushel, as well as the other usuals. I don't recall seeing a
Bay-breasted this early or late.
3. I may have a chance next Tuesday afternoon to do some walking around by
Onamia. I'm staying north of town. Any thoughts for where I could go for a
late afternoon walk?
4. No, really, there were just 3 things.
