[Tweeters] Townsend’s warbler behavior

[Louise]

It's not somewhere I've ever seen them either. Although I'm missing
Townsend's from my yard entirely this winter. I wasn't surprised at first
because they often don't show up until the weather turns really cold, but
the five days of freeze didn't bring them in either. Obviously they're
somewhere in the local area though!
