I saw the Ovenbird in the Smithsonian's Ripley Garden again
yesterday, Fri. Jan. 19, at 8:30 a.m. This time about mid-garden
foraging on the ground near the green bushes labeled "Eleagnus
pungens 'Fruitlandii.'"
Although I looked, I did not find it on Thurs. Jan. 18 or Sat. Jan.
20 around the same time--but both Thurs. and Sat. were much colder
than Friday a.m.
