Five Rivers EEC- 4/27
The weather was fairly tranquil at Five Rivers EEC in Delmar this morning, although the wind strengthened after 9am. That drove many of the birds farther into wooded areas and down along the Vlomankil

American Goldfinch Mimic
I never thought of American Goldfinch as mimics, but today I listened to one mimic an Eastern Towhee (Drink your tea..) with astonishing accuracy. He sang it about 10 times, albeit a little falsetto.
