There were three Louisiana Waterthrushes at Riverbend Park (Fairfax County)
this Wednesday morning near the inland pond about 1/2 mile up river from the
Visitors Center. I saw two foraging along the pond's overflow stream while a
male in a tree above (never could spot it) sang repeatedly. It was singing the
variation of its song which to my ears sounds like the first line of the
refrain of "Chanson Boheme" from Bizet's Carmen.
Strange...I always think it sounds like Mustang Sally (Wilson Pickett)...Rich
