Some of us are night owls and have a difficult time rising to meet  
the chorus. However this morning the incessant call outside my second  
story window was not to be denied. It was not just that it was loud,  
it was out of place for downtown Bemidji. Opening my eyes I rolled  
over and peered through the fuzz out the window. All four of my cats  
where crowded into the window frame, noses pressed against the  
screen. Four tails hung over the window ledge twitching in rapt  
anticipation.

Three feet away in tree that almost touches the window was a Northern  
Waterthrush advancing boldly towards the four furry fiends and  
scolding. Amazing! I don't think I've ever watched one this close, or  
exhibiting aggressive behavior.

Wake Up! Migration is On!
