Field Notes

Description:

Wikipedia says: northern birds migrate to the southern United States and Mexico in winter, returning to their summer habitat about March/April.
It must be the northern birds as they were not here during the winter. Now they come in volume.
On the last photo one of them has white spots on the head. I wonder what that is...

Habitat:

Urban area with little bog and forest.
