Continuing the "this happened a while ago and I am just getting to posting," was excited about an Ovenbird that had a brood patch a few weeks ago. Ovenbirds get their name from the type of nest they build. It is on the ground, made of leaves and grass, and looks like a domed oven. When I did an undergrad study on birds and window collisions, this species was represented strongly - meaning, in several cities that were recording bird strikes, Ovenbirds were always near the top of the lists of casualties recorded.
