Was scanning the skies from my patio moments ago and watched a male flying(~100 yards away) SE and moving away fairly quickly. I'll make an official scout report when one lands in my backyard. I didn't expect my birds for another week or two since this is my 2nd year in Allen...but who knows?
Getting excited!

Dale, you're killing me! I got my house up yesterday and I'm eyeing another spot in my yard for another little house (maybe). I woke up this morning at about 3 a.m. thinking about playing the dawnsong, then I thought the wind would be against the little guys today and it was a little early still in the season, so I didn't play it. I'll be danged if I didn't come on just now to find your post and both a Plano and a Rowlett scout report from this weekend.
The dawnsong is going into the player right now. I won't be missing another morning, dang it!
Good luck!
