Rehearsing for the Dawn Chorus
It's late February. This morning the sun was out, and the forsythia blooming. And for the first time this year, I heard the tentative song of a dark-eyed junco. Not the common notes they whistle at each other all year, the song which greets the warming sun. The song which signals spring. They're rehearsing, and I can't wait for the performance.
