Hi Robert,My mother and I went to see the bird and saw it a couple of times by the front door. We first spotted it at 2:30, and it showed up by itself. The second time was at 2:50 with a few Oregon dark-eyed juncos.Hope this helps. Good luck!Kristin Araki

Tinnitus is my old challenge … started in 1965 when I shot out my high frequency hearing in 3 days. The audiologists have told me I have learned to “hear around it” to a degree and the new hearing aids have helped some also.

Ken, I forgot about my other “new” challenge re birding by ear…. tinnitus is screaming at me, usually worse in afternoons
without Missy’s ears, I’d experience fewer (if any) waxwings, creepers, and Golden-crowned Kinglets

The background noise is still and issue but at least with my new hearing aides I can hear a Song Sparrow for the first time since 1965.
My biggest challenge is trying to figure out what that new sound is, somebodies loud car radio a half mile away or a bird 🙂
