Great Meadows (Concord)
A zillion loudly trilling marsh wrens at Great Meadows. I heard them for the first time last week and went back for more (with my r09). Other marsh dwellers were there including many great blue herons and great egrets, and a multitude of turtles that cross the trail (and hiss at you if you put a camera in their face). New behaviors (for me): a red-wing blackbird that came right down in the trail in front of me in search of a bug; the fact that marsh wrens sing on the wing, pushing upward when they trill.
