Singing Northern Mockingbird -- South Mesa Trailhead, Boulder County

[Curt Brown --- Boulder, CO]

I was out this morning checking on OSMP trailheads, COVID compliance (variable), levels of use (very high).  While I was slowly cruising through the South Mesa and Dowdy Draw parking areas, I was hearing a mockingbird singing loudly and almost continuously.  I've seen mockingbirds a couple of different years in this area, so maybe it's not surprising, but a nice sound of spring!
