Congrats Joe! ( wish I had your hearing )
On 5-26, Ian Resnick, Arlene Rawls, and I birded Shawangunk. We Crossed
paths with Shai Mitra and Pat Lindsey, the former had informed us that
he believed he had heard a Henslow's Sparrow.
Our group walked to the blind where one had been last year, and then
down to the next blind, and Ian though he heard a faint / distant bird.
Neither Arlene or I heard it , and all who had seemed to think it was
distant and or calling faintly, and not often and loudly as the one last
year had done.
Ian and I were musing about the following... Is there any merit to the
thought that a bird -hoping- for a mate would sing loudly and
frequently, while one who may have attracted one would be more demure?
thoughts?
