Hi All=2C

   The first Baltimore Oriole=2Can adult female=2C arrived last night at my=
 hummingbird feeder and remains today.

   I had a unconfirmed (but I have no reason to doubt it) report this morni=
ng of a male Indigo Bunting at a neighbours feeder.

   A male Brown-headed cowbird also arrived at my house this AM. There are =
lots of birds at the feeders this week=3B about 20 different species a day.

   While hiking in a mixed forest=3B mostly deciduous=2C yesterday I heard =
a call that puzzled me.

Two notes (and only two notes)  similar to a Northern Saw-whet Owl but a li=
ttle louder. The bird repeated the notes every few minutes while we were in=
 range. Unfortunately I didn't have time to check it out at the time. It di=
dn't match any owl call that I know so I wondered if someone might have a s=
uggestion as to what I heard

    All the best.

                     Fritz McEvoy=20
