THEME:   first word of a phrase is a type of bird, but it is covert
   
GOOD ONES:     
oddly, none --- well maybe "Solemn conclusion"   
   
BTW:   
Big Bird fan   TOT [as well as a Baltimore Oriole fan, who must be chirping with delight these days]   :'(   
   
Ajar, in poems   OPE [I've already addressed this error!  Now pay attention.  No poet used OPE to mean ajar, ever (a million if you find one)   
   
Erudite person   SAVANT [I've met too many erudite people who were not by any stretch savants]   
   
Juillet's season   ETE [meaning summer is French and never used in English, but -ete is an affix for gamete]   
   
Fed. org. of neuropsychiatry   NIMH  [oddly there is a great kid's book called Mrs. Frisby [sic] and the Rats of Nimh --- anyway I liked it]   
   
   
RATING:    ;D
Three grins = Loved it; Two grins = Enjoyed it; One grin = A bit bland for my taste; One teardrop = Not much fun
