I was wide awake but still in bed when from outside, in a strip of windbreak made up of old spruces, bur oak, basswood and poplar I heard that ee-o-lay, another bird from remotest childhood. Someone had ID'd it for my mother. That was well south of here; this is the furthest north I've ever heard it. There seemed to be only three phrases and the bird was gone; winds were out of the south. I wonder if there are any nesting records for wood thrush in this part of St. Louis County.
