More spring songs

Tufted Titmouse 1/14/08


Northern Cardinal - 12/5/07

Both photos were taken in Central Park by
LLOYD SPITALNIK

Today, when the temperature itself was spring-like (52 degrees and sunny, this afternoon!) two more spring songs were heard:

1. Several Northern Cardinals in the Ramble this morning, heard by Jack Meyer.

2. In the North Woods this morning, a little after 9 a.m., I heard my first Tufted Titmouse spring song [whistle, really] of the year, pee-oh, pee-oh, pee-oh. Very exciting.
