Hello Tweeters,

bird was perched high in the tall Scots Broom bushes, always high.He was
singing the whole time we was watching this bird. Tte behavier reminded me
of the single Least Flycatcher in CURLEW.On two occasien this Least
Flycatcher was calling and calling forever. This Clay-colored Sparrow did
the same.Presuming try to find a mate. I could approach this bird real
close, and he kept singing his or hers heart out.Phil Kelley joint us, so
