All: An Eastern Towhee was singing his "drink-your-tea" song this
morning at Schoolhouse Pond, the first time this spring I've heard that
lovely sound. Was hoping for an early Barn or NRW Swallow, but had only
2 Tree Swallows over the pond.
Later, crossing Capitol Hill on the way to work in DC, I noticed some
trees have started to bloom, no doubt aided by the hot air generated
there-upon.
