Hatching on schedule

Here's evidence of one of spring's arrivals, now residing in the meadow behind the News office.  

Backyard Birding

Welcome back to the Warbling Vireo (I think) that's been living in our yard for years. He (I think) sits in a tree and warbles all day, a striking descending trill, over and over. I don't know how he eats because he never stops warbling. The repetitiveness of it used to bother me but now I've become accustomed to his call and listen for his song, a favorite sign of summer.
