White-throated Sparrow, another sign of autumn
Another sign of the changing seasons. I heard the first song of White-throated Sparrow singing in the woods today. They have a beautiful, lyrical song, described as "Oh-sweet-canada-canada" or "Old-Sam-Peabody-Peabody." We heard them constantly while paddling and camping in Quetico Provincial Park this past June. White-throats spend the summer breeding in Canada and they winter in our woods here in the U.S.
