Bird songs!

       A pair of brown thrashers nested in one of the tree rows on my property. They are noted for beautiful song but I've been unable to record them with the Merlin App. They are quite reclusive so not easy to approach. Though I've not captured their song, many others have been recorded.

     Recorded since the last report include eastern kingbird, chimney swift, killdeer, sedge wren, horned lark, hairy woodpecker, white breasted nuthatch and lesser yellow legs. The last mentioned are wading birds that frequent the little pond across the street.  Now I'm beginning to recognize songs that previously just registered as 'some bird.'

Takk for alt,
