Yesterday my husband said he thought he heard a Winter Wren for the first time this spring, from down along the stream below our house next to and north of Shindagin Hollow State Forest in Caroline. This morning I was thrilled to wake up to the sound of one singing at around 6:40 am, from down in the ravine. No more wonderful sound of spring to me!
