I love spring time in Minnesota, and since my retirement, I get to enjoy sitting outdoors listening to the bird songs, as I marvel at the special coloration of the sprouting leaves on the various trees in the White Bear Lake neighborhood.

Today (May 19th) I was outside on the patio drinking my coffee, and reading the Saint Paul Pioneer Press, when I heard an unknown bird calling out from somewhere in the area. Beep-boop, Beep-Beep-Beep-boop!

In my 62 years I have never heard that bird call, and never heard a bird call that was so loud, as if the bird had a cordless megaphone?.

Need help in identifying what species of bird; makes the Beep-boop mating call. ~Parnelli

Everyone we meet in life, give us happiness, some by their arrival, others by their departures!?
