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!

Will they invite their friends???

Okay, we have been at the new house now for almost 4 months, and I have seen so many House Finches at the feeder.  I keep hoping they will tell all their friends.  By friends I mean the American Goldfinch. 

 With the face of this one here, he doesn't look very friendly. 
He doesn't look very happy

"You lookin' at me?"


Caught this turkey along with some of his friends foraging in the brush on Long Beach Road.

Birding as a group

Some friends sent me these pictures from when we went to Morton Bird Sanctuary.  Here they are!

My friend Suzie is now hooked on birding.  She put up 4 more bird feeders in her yard.  Who says you can't have fun enjoying nature...

Family fun!
