My Little Ovenbird

Ovenbird, Beech Hill Preserve, Rockport, Maine, 11 May 2018.

Ovenbird.

I have a thing for Ovenbirds. They’re so dependable, for one thing—arriving each year right on time, hollering “Teacher, Teacher, TEACHER!” from their perches about thirty feet up into the canopy. They have what I call a “branch walk” behavior when suspicious. They chase each other around in the woods.

The song of the Ovenbird is my ringtone. That should tell you something.
