Their lively ministrelsy
Christmas-tree birds / Dec. 2009
“On December 9 one of these birds trilled in a clear, resonant tone. On the 13th it was the low, sweet warble again. On the 19th — a warm, bright day — the song sparrow regaled me again with his lively ministrelsy.”
~ Leander S. Keyser, Bird Songs Out of Season, 1891
