Bird Loss
Personal memory by Melody Masi
I live on Cape Cod. When I was a kid I remember hearing and later, seeing towhees scratching around on the forest floor behind my house. I learned their sound and knew the difference between them and an animal. There were lots. I still live on CC and haven't seen a towhees in 20-30 years.
