Hi all,
Today evening after work, I decided to walk to Blue Grass lane. Luckily for me
as I walking a bird made some noise in the NE corner of southern corn field,
may be about 50 feet from the corner. So stopped and looked for the bird but
did not see. I must confess that then I decided to spish once. There it popped
up and sat briefly on the corn where I could get a binocular view of its beak
and face and for a fraction of a second whole body before it dove into the corn
again. I spent some more time in the vicinity. I heard it call twice giving
calls in about twenty minutes I was there. I reviewed the calls with Peterson's
Guide on the cell phone app and it sounded like what is described as the 'pit'
calls.
Along the marsh of the (ex) Bull Pasture pond, I heard and saw several
Red-winged Blackbirds doing my property, somewhere else two White-throated
Sparrows were singing in duet pure sweet Canada Canada. Sunset was awesome!
If felt like pleasant spring evening except sun was setting earlier!

PS: Dave Weber and friend - Sorry guys, I could not call you as I did not have
your phone numbers and for some reasons, I had deleted the RBA messages so I
did not have the number to post, hence I emailed. I saw the bird just barely
after 6 or 7 minutes of my meeting you.
