Several Ruby-crowned Kinglets were singing enthusiastically at noon today near the shallow pond behind the Ray School and around Storrs Pond in Hanover. Their boisterous song is one we hear daily during our spring field trips near Anchorage, AK, but we have heard their song infrequently here on our home turf. White-throated Sparrows and Hermit Thrushes were singing tentatively this evening behind our house. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Marianne and Michael Walsh 151 E. Camp Hill Rd.
