Exciting!

I also had a yard Black billed cuckoo two days ago. It sang twice. We are
now hearing it up and down Houghton Rd, at the intersection with Duboise.
Haven't had one locally in about 10 years. So nice to have them back. I

tern was still there resting on the jetty when I left. If you're out by the
lake, feel free to take a look.
Happy birding,
