Nature Done Wright

Talked to Stiles Thomas, the monitor of the Red-shouldered  Nest in Allendale yesterday a.m.  Not only is there at least one baby Red-shoulder in the nest, but its father now has a name.  Laura's mate's name is David.

The male is named after David Reik, the host of the nest these past two springs…

"I have spoken," said Stiles, who has follwed the Red-shoulders in Allendale for more than 70 years.
