Had a late season Phoebe today on Houghton Rd, along with the already mentioned white throated sparrow.
The local bluebird family is quite active, sitting on/in/around their nest box, sometimes all 4 of them at once. Was it Marty Schlabach who was asking about mockingbirds? There is an extended family of 6-8 also on Houghton rd that stay around all year. At least a couple of them have been going through their repertoire, mostly on sunny days but one was doing it this morning. I hear them a couple times a week singing away.
