Welcome to My Blog!
This blog is where I will share with you what I am seeing in our yard, in our gardens, and what is happening on our small lake. I will also tell you about birds I observe when traveling. And I would like to hear from you! The purpose of this website is for all of us who are interested in birds, to share what we are seeing and thinking. Please use the Public Forum to post what you are observing and to ask and answer questions. I do not have a rigid schedule as to when I blog, but I generally post every 3-5 days – occasionally more often. I will also use this blog to inform you when Cleon and I will be live, on camera, explaining what we are doing at the feeders and birdbaths. I will also post the day and time when I mow as birds most often will not be at the feeders at that time. So, I will use this blog – you use the Public Forum – and let’s learn about birds together!

The live-stream will begin again next spring – probably in late April. It will depend when the birds return from their winter […]

Ruffed Grouse
I have always had a special place in my heart for Ruffed Grouse. I am from Pennsylvania and that is our state bird – and I learned that in fourth grade from my most favorite teacher, Miss Clouser. There was something about the bird that fascinated me even then, and in part, I think it […]

Still with us!
We do not see the groundhog very often – in fact it has been weeks since the last sighting and we thought it had moved on. But here it is – today at noon. Our yard is full of hickory and oak trees so I am guessing a nice nut or acorn is what it […]

Cleon was certainly surprised!
I have a small greenhouse which I love. If any of you are thinking about getting one, I would recommend you do. Mine is attached to the side of our garage and has an entrance into the garage where my potting tables and all my gardening stuff is. There is nothing like going out into […]
