Yesterday while jogging before the storm, I flushed a small bird in the woods which looked to have the orange crown of an ovenbird, but couldn't be sure without binoculars. It was near another small bird on the ground pumping its tail, which I assumed was a Louisiana waterthrush. This morning I heard my FOY "teacher teacher teacher" song. Also had two brown thrashers, one singing loudly and proudly while a second seeming to slowly slink away in reluctant resignation. Two hairy woodpeckers were chasing each other all over.
Also FOY catbird for me yesterday. And a field sparrow was singing for much of the day yesterday outside my "office" window.
