The three more active than at 0500 in the rain. Zsolt initiated a chase while Ruger and I stood on the deck watching. Zayne stopped to look toward the stream. I listened to voices: Common Yellowthroat, Northern Parula, Black-capped Chickadee, White-throated Sparrow, American Robin, Northern Waterthrush, Downy Woodpecker, Black-throated Green Warbler. Some voices stronger than others, some voices distant. How many are listening?
We do not always see the one that speaks.
