I heard/saw only 3 Sandhill Cranes at my location for
the Houston Co. Crane Count this morning, but the dawn
chorus was excellent, including at about 5:45 AM songs
& calls by the following species:

Ring-n. Pheasant
Wild Turkey
Sora Rail
Greater Yellowlegs
Wilson's Snipe
Great Horned Owl
Barred Owl
Whip-poor-will (2)
Yellow-bellied Sapsucker
E. Phoebe
House Wren
E. Bluebird
Brown Thrasher
E. Towhee
Chipping, Field, Savanna, Song, & Swamp Sparrows
Yellow-headed Blackbird

The whips were especially welcome members of the
chorus.
