Since we moved to Addison, the buzzy-zippy song of the northern parula has been constant background music all spring and summer long in our yard. Today he was on black fly patrol in the maples, while I worked on getting the garden planted. I know he’s got a very well hidden nest somewhere nearby.

Piping plovers will distract potential predators from their nests by feigning an injury.
