Again with this qualifier that it may be old news to the locals, but these were my first cardinals, singing or not, in Duluth since 2010. The song attracted me over to the thicket, behind the row of crab apple trees, as I was jogging along Park Point between the playground and the last few houses. Another cardinal responded to the first one over nearer the beach. And these are birds that will come check you, the human prowler, out when you go peeking at them (unlike a Connecticut warbler...)
