Great find Tom!

Would this be in the parking lot area at Mallard Lake, or on a nearby trail? West from the North, middle or South part of the lake? Any tips you could give to pinpoint these birds would be greatly appreciated. I presume the male is still singing then?

One of my favorite birds.

Thank You In Advance!

Brian Z.
