Today I saw a local corvid hiding in a tree making a chittering sound I took to be a warning, as a red tailed hawk circled, hunting. Later, I saw a blackbird and heard it sing, not in the dead of night though. General observation: they are all much smaller than I expected, smaller than their equivalents in Oz. I surmise this is due to the prevalence of placental predators here.
And hummingbirds ... Like little moths on amphetamine, clicking to one another like microbats.
