In Auburn, I heard Phoebes calling about 10 days ago, and we now have a nest in our Phoebe shelf on the shed behind the house. I've seen them in the yard, but seldom hear them.
I was in Durham today and saw one in a friend's yard there.
Yesterday's early morning walk in our neighborhood produced a male Scarlet Tanager, a Northern Parula, the usual Blue Jays, Gold Finches, and wonder of wonders, a Wood Thrush!
