Normally migrant female= s are a couple of weeks or more later than the early males, so that by the = time of the annual pond-hopping King's County field trip, females will be j= ust starting to arrive, I'll guess.

They have really beautiful songs. I had a pheasant at my feeders for the first time, actually I have neve= r seen a pheasant anywhere near where I live. I wonder if it=E2=80=99s been= released recently. I also had a pair (male and female) of red-winged black= birds for a few seconds, my first for the year. The loons are also back, si= nce the harbour is finally thawed out.

When I p= layed the fox sparrow song on the set of Stokes CDs, it had quite a bit of = likeness of what I had heard. Hopefully I will hear it some more before it = migrates north!? Then at 7:15 p.m. I saw the FOX SPARROW again at the feede= rs -- just a coincidence? And Pat Dix at Greenwich , across the highway from Harold Forsyth's ho= use, saw a GRAY SQUIRREL again.
