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!

Morning Seranades

Woke up this morning around 4:30am to the sounds of birds singing.  Thanks to San's tutelage I was able to identify a few of them. 

There was the American Goldfinch, which I recognize easily because I hear them everyday outside my kitchen window.  I also heard a Song Sparrow singing his heart out.

When I went outside later to water my plants, I could hear the Red Breasted Woodpecker, Northern Cardinals and Mourning Doves.

I look forward to this weekend where I can lay in my hammock with a drink and a book and take in all the sounds of spring.  I hope you all enjoy it as well.
