Although I had seen a couple of Phoebes and heard call notes, until today I had not heard songs from those same birds near the Cascadilla Boathouse at Stewart Park, and along Fall Creek in Renwick Wildwood. I also heard a new-to-me-this-year Phoebe sing in Jetty Woods (the City-owned part adjacent to Newman Golf Course, not the Cornell-owned Lighthouse Point Natural Area portion farther north). All this singing was not simply birds showing up; those that have been here were also more inspired today. - - Dave Nutter
