Chewink


Ah, spring.  Hence this chewink, a bird not viewable in Somerville except during the migration, and rarely at that.  Hence also this hermit thrush...


...and this phoebe.


These latter two are regular spring visitors, particularly the hermit thrush, which appears like clockwork in mid-April.  Of the three, the phoebe is the only one I know to nest in Somerville, near the banks of Alewife Brook.
