Google vs. Google & Field Sparrow in Hiram

[Sean S]

Seems my lengthy post got sent to everyone's spam, and it probably had to do with Gemini and Gmail not wanting to work together.  As I was trying to paste Gemini's results on the topic of the Winter Wren (now European Wren; thanks Alice Plotkin for the specific ID) and its significance in folklore, all kinds of funny things were happening and I had to go back numerous times and reorder sentences that Gemini seemed to be manipulating inside my email in an awkward way.  I felt the need to hurry because I was thinking the post would self delete, hence the typos.

No Carolina Wren yet today.   We had 3 inches of snow last night so it may have moved somewhere.  However a FIELD SPARROW just showed, taking nyjer seeds under the feeder.  A species I've only seen here one other time in the past 6 years, and a great start to a Christmas eve.

Got all your post in my inbox! Fun and informative read.

Here in Saco at my location there has been a Carolina Wren around continuously for the last 10 years plus. 

The last three years they have nested successfully on my 2^nd floor porch.

There are currently 2 here with the occasional 3^rd interloper. Love to hear their ringing and varied calls on a overcast or very chilly winter day! Vocals I never would have expected to hear when I started bird watching 65 years ago!
