This is a great matchup, if nothing for the perfect symmetry of the birds’ names. Eastern birds whose names are euonyms for their voices. I read recently that the towhee is called the chewink in some parts of its range. It has a rich chewink call that goes with the cheery “drink your tea!” that graces brushy zones throughout the east in summer.
