Although it has been cardinals singing in the spruce tree outside my bedroom window that wake me up in the morning, today it was phoebes. The male phoebe calls it's name, "Fee-Bee," in a sing song voice, resembling the bully, Nelson, from the Simpsons saying, "Haw-Haw." Phoebes are one of those little brown birds that don't attract a lot of attention by their looks. Tomorrow snow is expected and my 7 a.m. bird class has already been cancelled. Guess what I'll be doing tomorrow morning, if the phoebes don't wake me up?
