Not anytime recently, that's for sure.  I've always been thrilled to
hear the song of the winter wren, since I seem to hear it so
infrequently.  I still remember clearly the first time I heard its
song in 1995 at Cedar Falls in the Hocking Hills.  Since then, I have
heard a winter wren in song only three other times, even though I
have seen them nearly every year.  Waiting to hear that melodious
burbling again is one of the reasons I'm a birder!
