A raven was soaring all around commonland this morning (a bird which I would've seen if I'd walked back to my yard -- does that count? ;-D). In the thickets a FOY catbird was foraging and meowing, and in the woods a black-throated-green was singing. A towhee which I'd been hearing call for at least a week now sang a strange song of three powerful rattling sequences -- drink your tea, Tea! TEA!! -- but it continues to evade visual observation. Finally, for a moment I thought I heard the start of a "pe-o-wee", but it paused abruptly and did not recur. It came from near where starlings and goldfinches tend to hang out, and not deep in the woods.
