June Twenty-third
If you are so fortunate as to have a pair of catbirds nesting in a small tree or a bush near your house, you have learned that the male is an accomplished songster. Have you ever noticed the father bird, when perched where he can overlook the nest, gently quivering his wings as though delighted at the thought of a nest full of little ones? After the eggs have hatched, these periods of delight are more frequent.
