The tales of two forever friends as they share a mutual passion for birds while spending time together.
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!

Remember Me??
Looks like I am, once again, the Blog Slacker! I certainly don't have as many interesting wildlife stories as my partner in crime, Ar. Her yard seems to be all aflutter with activity. I can offer this much: Something ran off with my peanut butter pinecone, (I was planning on reusing it!) It is nowhere to be found. The peanut butter bagel also disappeared, (was not planning on reusing that one!) Someone ate the sunflower seed encrusted apple, but I was not there to witness who it was. No one has eaten the suet out of the coconut. And I have some poorly taken pictures of some female finches on my suet pinecone. So there it is!! Wild America this is not. However...
I am happy to at least be able to share with you a picture of mama Robin in her nest in our Dogwood tree. It is kind of hard to see her in the small picture. If you click on the picture, you'll be able to spot her, no problem. Looking forward to seeing some baby birds. So this seems to be about as much excitement as my yard can yield at this time. Hope you are all having a little bit more in the way of birding adventures!

Great picture San, I as of yet haven't been able to catch a bird in one of my nests. I will keep trying to be in the right place at the right time.
ReplyDeleteLove the new look of your blog Sparrow. Also I agree with Ar, you got a great shot of the robin in her nest. Hope you will get to see and hear baby birds a coming!
