Last evening the peaceful singing of grosbeak, oriole, and tanager was interrupted by the piercing shrieks of a green heron and angry caws of a crow, both of whom claim a nesting spot in our little (1/2 acre?) spruce grove. They went on and on, back and forth, and there was a lot of flapping and rustling in the treetops. Not sure if they fought each other or a third party. A red-breasted nuthatch piped in below, and the red squirrel raised a ruckus.
