Enjoy birding within the early successional habitats of the Partnership Boundary. A common site to see and hear are Eastern towhees. Grouped in the 鈥渟ongbird鈥� category, they are infamous for their song 鈥淒rink your teeeaaaaa鈥�. They can be heard and seen in spring through early fall during their arrival and departure migration, and nesting periods.
