Managed to get fairly close to a LOUISIANA WATERTHRUSH singing at the bottom of a ravine and a WINTER WREN that seemed to be singing in response. Watched the LOWA singing from a perch and then forage in the rocky stream. No photos, but I recorded some good audio. Other bird activity was mostly quiet in the poor weather. 1 PURPLE FINCH was heard singing back in the conifers near the wetland. Best, Evan B.
