I was surprised to hear a Swainson's Thrush singing repeatedly between c. 7-8:00 pm this evening in the mixed woods by my house in Norwich. This must be a very late northbound migrant, as I'm not aware of any local breeding sites. Chris ************************************* Chris Rimmer Conservation Biology Dept.
