Today I have heard more birds singing. A flock of seven turkeys came around to visit my chickens in the coop and to scrounge up sunflower seeds from the ground under the bird feeders. This afternoon, with the windows open, I heard the unmistakable sound of a common yellow throat which normally I hear only by marshes and wetlands. They're not that common and they're hard to see because they hide in the weeds. I must be hearing the sounds of a migrating common yellow throat. I can't ever remember hearing one at home before!
