>Tonight June 24, 2009, I heard a new bird song in my Fort Wayne, Indiana,=
>backyard in a tall pine tree. The sound was brilliantly clear, three
>notes sounding a bit like a cardinal's song, but with only one clear note=
>after the three a bit lower than the first three. It repeated the song or=
>call every few minutes. I had been watering my garden and it seemed as if=
>it watched me from the branches of the pine as it called. I listened for=
>5 minutes or so, then walked very slowly toward the pine. It flew to an
>adjacent plum tree and kept on singing. Finally it flew to another pine
>where I could see it was a medium size bird, no crown, and was of a darker=
>color. I could not see well any color because the sun had gone down and I=
>saw it against a brighter sky so I saw the outline mostly. Finally it
>flew to a hedgerow and into the dense bushes. Any ideas? I know we have=
>bluebirds in the area, but I don't know their song. I heard a tufted
>titmouse earlier in the day, and I know robin, cardinal, finch, nuthatch
>sounds quite well.
