April 27 - I didn't see many birds on my morning walk. They were probably hiding from the elements. But I heard a bird in a thick evergreen which was unfamiliar to me. I know it's hard to describe a song so others understand but I would like to try. It was quite loud and repetitive, no variation. The first part on a scale was do re, do re. Think of it as pretty, pretty. Then the song returned to do with many staccato notes with emphasis on the last note, holding it a little. So it sounded like "pretty, pretty, tttttttttttt." Any ideas? Maybe it was an imitation but didn't vary and I listened a long time. I know the songs of most common birds.
