Yesterday morning, bright and early, I heard my first singing Wood Thrush of
the season on our property in western Athens County.  I heard quite a few
more singing along our road during an evening walk.  Also heard my first
singing Common Yellowthroat of the season during yesterday evening's walk.

An auditory first for me, as of this weekend, was clucking Wild Turkeys. 
They sound like they are just across the road from our property.  I've heard
it both in the morning and during the afternoon.  Should I take this to mean
there is a roost nearby?  I don't know of any turkey hunting that takes
place in my neighborhood, so I don't think I'm hearing a man-made turkey call.

I hope to venture out this afternoon to a nearby farm field that Grasshopper
Sparrows frequent to see if they have returned yet.

Good birding,
Heather Aubke
Albany (Athens Co.)
