Haven't seen any posts from the MOS event over the weekend. Nothing out of
the ordinary sighted? Or was it so hot the trips all got cancelled in favor
of A/C?

    We spent the weekend in PA and in the company of Magnolia,
Black-throated Greens and Blues, Blue-headed Vireos, Winter Wrens (still
singing that never ending warble), Purple Finch, Juncos and of course,
Hermit Thrush. I can now answer the question about whether their song is
prettier than the Wood Thrush: It depends strictly and scientifically on
which one you are listening to. We had all sorts of instruments and gauges
to accurately measure that. You believe me don't ya?

    However since all these birds occurred outside the range of this list, I
won't mention them here. So I didn't. You believe that too?
