Not many people at the rec center tonight.
That's like asking if ambiguous has more than 1 meaning .Quote:

Oddly, I don't hear my resident Robin which is unusual too.
[Edit] If I were to try to reproduce it, I'm going to need a Theremin.

The evening time out here is like the warm up before the symphony performance. Everybody playing something different at the same time. As the evening progresses it eventually thins to just the Meadowlarks. Frickin awesome, one of the best benefits of living rural.
Meadowlark song is one of my favorites as well. Imprinted even, from my childhood.
It's the quarter & eighth notes, probably.
Also wondering where my hummingbirds are. Thought I heard them twice a couple weeks back & now nothing. Usually have more than one feeder going by now & I'm unsure the one I have up has been visited.

It's getting a little late for migrants so your bird is likely a local breeder. Xeno-canto is a good resource for recorded bird songs.
Here's some for the Hermit Thrush, a mountain bird closely related to American Robin, and one of the most beautiful, haunting songs in North America:
Hermit Thrush
Two other birds have melodious songs very similar to robin, the Black-headed Grosbeak and the Western Tanager:
Black-headed Grosbeak
Western Tanager
10m or so before the mystery song ended, the Robin sang. She must have been as taken with it as I.
Looked for that bird for 45m. No idea where it was perched. I hope it returns tomorrow because I'd really like to know. Never heard anything like it in all my time on the front range & I'd like to think I've been paying attention.
We have at least 3-4 hummingbird families visiting the feeders. Black chins & broadtails, who don't get along too well with each other, especially around the feeders. Quail sound off every now and then. Those fu^&*( ravens will not shut up. Getting one of the young ones to fly. Who for some reason has decided he'd rather be a pedestrianQuote:

At the cabin north of Ward we're now feeding ~1.5 gallons of sugar water a day. The next door neighbors are feeding an equal amount, so that's about 3000 hummingbirds daily. All Broad-tailed at this time.
At the peak of season (July 25-Aug 5) when the migrant Rufous and Calliope move through and the juvenile Broad-tailed show up to feeders, we feed about 10-15 gallons of sugar water daily depending on the weather. Figure about 1000 birds per gallon per day. That's about 12,000+ individual birds feeding here daily.
If Alfred Hitchcock ever knew....
I change & clean the feeders every other day.
Hope my mystery bird sings again in the morning. Nothing tonight but Robins & Crows.
That's a lot of birds. WowQuote:

Freeze, gopher.
Pew pew.
I?ve found gophers to be rather non-compliant when given verbal orders.
(Fine. I?ve probably never seen a gopher in real life. Nutria, yes. Prairie dogs, yes. But no gophers.)
Grand Junction. Been coming here for 30 years. Consistently good and affordable. (Most chinese restaurant sushi is crap, worse than grocery store sushi.)Quote:

Sushi Den was (or is) a good place too.
At least during mid 90s were awesome.
last time I've been to den was mid 2000.
I just don't like waiting, so I goto less better sushi place as substitute now. :)
