Hermit Thrush, Blue-headed Vireo, Yellow-rumped Warbler, and Ruffed Grouse
have started singing (or drumming) the last few mornings near my place in
Ripton. Purple Finch, Winter Wren, Brown Creeper have been singing for 2-3
weeks.

Barred Owl calling throughout the day this weekend. Saw one Broad-wing Hawk
on Sunday.

Wood Frogs and Spring peepers in full chorus. About 10 spp of spring
ephemerals leafing out in nearby rich cove. Spring Beauty in flower.
