style=\"font-size: x-small;\">th<\/span><\/sup><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">, where I smugly talk about being able to pick out the strands of individual songs.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Now, in the thick of prime migration time, I realize that this is a load of self serving crap.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">What was I thinking.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I am surrounded by whistles, trills, clucks, burrs, and other assorted songs that are all running hopelessly together.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Particularly vexing is the goldfinch, who has a varied song that is easily identifiable if it is sung in its entirely.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">But often, I only hear snatches of it, which sound like new arrival and set me on a quest.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">After circling a tree, and exposing myself to the scourge of ticks, I discover with great disappointment that it is only a goldfinch torturing me with a small snippet of his song.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">At one point, I was sure that I was hearing a new warbler.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I carefully identified the tree, spotted the flitting bird, and lifted my binoculars only to find another goldfinch.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Well, that is okay, I thought, at least when he sings, I will register this variance as a goldfinch song.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">And just as the song wafted down to me, through the binoculars I say the target goldfinch carefully stuff a wad of blossoms into his mouth.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I thought, \u201cWell, here is a new method of torture, he is a ventroloquist, too!\u201d<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I was reminded of the old Ed Sullivan show where a ventriloquist would try to enhance the illusion by having his dummy talking while he was swallowing water.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I presume that there was another bird in the tree, but I was never able to find it.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman;\">New Birds

over the meadow, but they have been silent until now.\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Today, the soaring hawk repetitively cried, an agonizing harsh cry which may me think of wild and untamed nature, with a hint of danger.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">But I was a little disarmed when I realized that this auditory cue comes predominantly from television ads and programs, who insert the sound of a red tailed hawk whenever they want to create an image of something that is really out there.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Remember those ads for trucks that are improbably parked on top of a precipice?<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Inevitably there will be the sound of a red tailed hawk in the background.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman;\">New Birds

style=\"color: #000000;\">This weekend I am on a quick trip to the Upper Peninsula Michigan to stay in our family\u2019s cabin along the shores of Lake Superior<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">This cabin has been in the family for several generations and has accumulated books and possession for probably 50 years.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I was looking through the musty bookshelves and stumbled across an original 1934 Peterson field guide to birds.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The book was very hopefully titled, \u201cA Bird Book with a New Plan.\u201d<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Peterson\u2019s \u201cnew plan\u201d was to helpfully put a small arrow next to the key features of a bird.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.fanagrams.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/spring-diary-Peterson1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright

height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Like any great idea, this plan seems pathetically obvious in retrospect, but Peterson\u2019s field guide was the inspiration to generations of amateur naturalists.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In 1934 my mother was only 7 years old, so presumably this book belonged to my grandmother, or perhaps to the owners that preceded by grandparents.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">My grandfather bought the cabin from an elderly, childless couple who both died one winter, and he took possession of the cabin and all its contents, including the unfinished knitting project on the nightstand and the hairbrush with embedded silver strands of hair and all the books.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As I flipped through the book, I hoped to find some markings, or stumble on someone else\u2019s life list, but no such luck.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I did discover that many of the pictures of the birds were in black and white, which thankfully have been replaced in my 2000 edition, and the pictures were tiny and cramped on the page.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">With a little additional searching in other bookshelves in the cabin I found a 1937 edition, a 1947 and a1960 edition, with each edition with progressively larger and more colored illustrations.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Here I was continuing on the cabin tradition of following birds.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman;\">May 15<sup><span style=\"font-size:

eagle\u2019s nest about a mile down the beach.\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">When the eagle nests in the spring, there is minimal foot traffic beneath him, but as vacationers swell during the summer months, there are many visitors to the beach.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Although it is easy to see the bald eagles in and around the nest in August, at this point, the eaglets have been fledged and the eagles seem oblivious to our presence.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As I approached the nest, I noticed that there was an eagle sitting on the nest.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I turned my head to watch two common mergansers in the cold waters of <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Lake Superior<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">, and when I turned my head back, I realized that the eagle had left the nest, was joined by another and were headed directly toward me.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I had just finished reading the bird guide which described the eagles \u201cenormous beak and sharp talons,\u201d and my anxiety grew as the eagles swooped down low and passed directly overhead.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">They then circled around and headed back again toward me.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As they passed overhead I could actually hear them calling, which sounded like scratchy radio static.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I quickly beat a hasty retreat.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman;\">New Birds

style=\"color: #000000;\">I stopped by the house of local residents Steve and Lorraine Ferguson.\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">They had set up a bird feeder in their back yard and a bird bath with running water.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As I was chatting, I noticed a bevy of sparrows enjoying the handouts and refreshments.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Steve mentioned that for the past four days a Harris sparrow had been at the feeder.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I had never heard of a Harris sparrow and when I consulted my bird guide, I realized that this sparrow is generally found farther west and was distinctly unusual here in the along the shores of Lake Superior.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As I looked at the sparrows fraternizing peacefully under the feeder, I had a rare opportunity to appreciate the relative sizes of these birds; in order of size, much like a group of siblings lined up by age, there was the diminutive chipping sparrow, the stout white throated sparrow, the sleek and confident white crowned sparrow, and if I may be permitted to read into the body language, the bewildered Harris sparrow, who was perhaps wondering what wild wind had landed him unexpectedly in this obscure corner of the north woods.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Times New
