Birds of a Feather is back with our new blog, Birding and Bonding! Our previous objective remains the same. Our goal is to find all birds that live on Long Island year round. The only rule is that in order to add a bird to our list, we must see it when we are together. That's where the bonding comes in. Life can get so hectic that we sometimes fail to enjoy the more important things. This gives us a wonderful outlet to make sure we take the time.

Of course, Long Island has many migratory birds, as well. We certainly don't want to ignore them. We will blog about them as well. Armed with new cameras and renewed incentive, we look forward to getting back on the birding trail!

When Red, White & Blue are truly Majestic

Saturday morning we woke up to yet another gorgeous day that instantly moves us to thank God for such beauty.  Of course the first thing I do when I go downstairs is to grab my binoculars to see who is having breakfast.  As I gaze in my backyard still blanketed in white snow, I see the brilliant red of a male Northern Cardinal and at last the beautiful blues of a Blue Jay.  Of course this inspires me so I email San to see if we can squeeze some birding time in the afternoon.  But it was not meant to be, San is sick.  Maybe Sunday if the weather holds up.
