I totally agree with the above statement, I have also learned so much about birds on this forum. Actually this forum is what got me bird-watching in the first place. I just happened to click on a thread "Show Us Your Bird Feeders" and I was hooked!! Many feeders and many birds later and it seems there is always a new bird to see and learn about and of course the "common" yard birds are so entertaining!!

Since we have 29 acres we also have "farm" birds and the Dickcissel has nested here for at least the past 2 years. They have probably been here all along but I didn't notice them before. Here is a male taking a bath along a gravel road that I like to bird watch.
