An unusual opportunity to compare all three mimic thrushes in the yard
this morning.

Grey catbirds chattering in the shrubs, a brown thrasher singing from
the top of the dead American Elm,
and a  n. mockingbird, still hanging around the fields. How did that
go....one repetition, two reps, three?

Also several indigo buntings, orchard orioles, eastern kingbirds. Lots
of c. yellowthroats and yellow warblers.

In the woods a scarlet tanager sang overhead while I gathered 19
morels.  A bounty
I stumbled on while pulling the unending garlic mustard.

Also wood thrush, and solitary vireos.

At the feeder, still,  a red breasted nuthatch.
