Huh, how about that, my home county is the worst county in the entire U.S for reduction in freezing days due to climate changed.
Based on this winter, and the muddy shoes, I believe it.

The Dull-mantled Antbird is a fun one. These birds are fiercely territorial and loud. If you happen across their territory, they'll let you know about it. They like steep, wet ravines with thick vegetation and don't like coming out in the open.
