This evening (June 19) I at about 7:30, I heard what sounded like a cross between an Eastern Wood Pewee, and Tarzan scream in my neighbor's yard. Never having seen Tarzan in person, I went over to look. There were a handful a songbirds chattering around a particular spot, and after a minute or two, a small, pale buteo fled the scene. Every year, from about 6 years ago till maybe 3 years ago, we had a nesting pair of Broad-wings in our neighborhood, but I haven't one in a few years. I remember one year in particular, the day the juvies fledged the whole fam damnly was flying around the neighborhood, letting out that long whistle with a hitch at the start. It's very nice to see one again. Chip Hubert Omaha
