This morning as I biked the East Ithaca Recway, just south of Mitchell Street I heard a waterthrush singing from the trees at the NW corner of the Hawthorn Orchard. Its first three notes had the plaintive slur of a Louisiana Waterthrush. This was followed by the choppy ending of a Northern Waterthrush. I did not stop to figure out the identity of the singer -- which admittedly could also have been an impersonating yellow warbler.
