Having to go to work Saturday prevented my getting out birding. My consolation prize was to be awakened by an unusual alarm. At least it sounded like that as I aroused myself from slumber. It sounded like a soft "coo-coo-coo," over and over on one pitch. As I grew more aware, I realized I was listening to a black-billed cuckoo. In my city neighborhood, this is not a bad way to begin the day.
