Yesterday morning, the first definite sign of winter-- the appearance of the first Bull-headed Shrike, perched magisterially atop a neighborhood tree, carping loudly at all and sundry with his piercing chatter. While the disappearance of the Barn Swallows signal that the end is near, these shrikes are usually the first positive sign of the winter birding season.
