Please use proper judgment and caution when opening attachments, clicking links, or responding to this email. Several years ago, much too early in the season, I posted that I was hearing a Northern Parula. I had not learned that Dark-eyed Juncos, late winter, before they head north, often begin to sing. There's some remote similarity; they both trill. But I should have known better, and I was embarrassed at having ignored a basic tenet of birding, to consider always what is likely, and not likely, in a given time and place. If you have a copy of the MDC booklet, Enjoying Missouri's Birds, it's it's an invaluable source of information about what appears when.
