Sue, Matt, et al:
Tuesday morning, March 7, we had the first singing phoebe are our
house in southwestern Loudoun. It's been singing every morning since.

Sue (and all),
I also saw and heard my first Eastern Phoebe of the spring this
morning. It was at Sunrise Valley Park in Reston.
Shortly thereafter, I was accosted by a security guard from an adjacent
office building who accused me of being on their property (I wasn't) and
then told me I couldn't look toward or at the building with binoculars.
I told him that this was a public park and that what he was saying was
absurd, but he told me that he'd call the police if he saw me doing it
again.
Nice way to start the spring, eh?
(By the way, I also saw an Eastern Meadowlark there about a week ago.)

All,
I heard an Eastern Phoebe singing this morning while I was on my run
in
Centreville. First one I've heard this year. Also found a dead
junco
in the middle of the trail. No obvious wound so I have no idea what
killed it.
Spring is springing!
Sue
