From SVBC charter member, master bird-bander and generous supporter…Judy Richardson.

As I woke up, listening to the morning chorus, I heard a Yellow-headed Caracara calling. Wait a minute, I am in Fairfield, Connecticut; not San Vito, Costa Rica! What is this???

As I continued to wake, I realized what I was hearing really, was an unusual call from a Mourning Dove! Time to re-boot my internal computer!

This usually happens when I arrive in San Vito; this was a first for me in Connecticut!
