I dread seeing the results of what the 2 trillers actually are. I am too dependent on habitat.

Hmmm, no chance for me, it is only my second spring ever here.

But rememberour little challenge regarding the Solitary Sandpipers?

Well, to give you an even chance, check out my blog.

Hey, Patrick, I'll be happy to donate a prize for your contest. I've got an extra copy of Don Kroodsma's Singing Life Of Birds--complete with CD. It's the paperback version.

Let me know. We can even ship it from here.
