Celebrating Birds
I have had a fascination with birds since I was a child.
I have had a fascination with birds since I was a child.
It started with my Aunt Dot...
Pop filled the feeders with seed, the suet feeders were filled with suet cakes Aunt Dot made herself.
I sat with her at the dining room window,
she taught me the enthusiastic passion I have for bird watching that I have today!
When I watch the birds in my backyard, I often think of her!
Thanks to my sister,
I am so lucky to have my Aunt Dot's Bird Book!
We use to see lots of Catbirds at her window, you can see the little "x" marks on the page.
So in honor of and in memory of her...here are some,

I don't have one, but I remember that bird guide! Beautiful photos! The detail is wonderful.
I am not an avid birdwatcher but I do enjoy watching them from my balcony... and, I might add, seeing those gorgeous photos you take of them.
