On April 3, 2007, my wife, Ella, And I took the nature trail at Mound City (Hopewell culture NHP) for the first time this year. Most of what one would expect was there, but there was one surprise. A male Scarlet Tanager flew across the trail directly in front of us. It seems rather early, but that's one you can't mistake.
