I just spotted a female Pine Warbler yesterday (the 2nd of February) sitting on the windowsill eating a seed. From what I understand, they overwinter a bit south of here (very southern Virginia and into the Carolina’s etc) but right when early February rolls around they return to just north of their wintering range – which is basically right where I am. Cool! I wonder if she had just arrived.

You often see this bird clinging to the side of a tree truck, sometimes upside down. The curved shape of it's cute little body it like a swoopy parabola.

Eastern Wood-Pewee

Very similar looking to the Eastern Phoebe, this flycatcher also has a distinctive call that is more like "PEE-a-WEEeeee.... PEEeeeee"

Gray Catbird

It kind of "meeewww"s like cat. And I'm really trying not to make a joke about a hot tin roof. Trying.
