Thanks again everyone!! I was born and raised in inner city Los Angeles and the first time I ever saw the country was on an outing with the Girl Scouts. I was ten year old and we camped out in an old farm house...when I woke up in the country I was in love with it. They even had an old cow there and I vowed that one day I would live on a farm with cows. It took me another 26 years to get here and another 26 years to really discover it! It ain't so bad having old eyes when you can finally see!!

I am a member of Mo Birds and get emails all day about all the birds being spotted...it is an exciting time of the year and of my life! I am glad I can share a little bit of it here with all of you! You have all been so kind in your comments and help since I started birding and your influence is certainly appreciated and welcomed.

Today is cold and overcast and the birds are eating in a manic frenzy! I keep checking the feeders to see if any new ones have shown up but nothing so far...I will go out to the brush piles and the pond and check that in a while. I do know that Mr. Blue is watching the nestbox and Mrs. Blue is nowhere to be seen...and I ain't gonna check the box!!
