"But now ask the animals and let them teach you; AND THE BIRDS OF THE HEAVEN, and let them tell you. Or let the fish of the sea declare to you. Who among all these does not know that The Hand of The Lord has done this; In whose hand is the life of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind."


Job 12:7-10

I encountered two new visitors to the Dixie feeder this morning. Overall I think me has a bird count of 27 species so far this fall. I like what I see and can't wait to become a 'Master Gardener'. Through this course I will be able to maximize the bird count via the green environment.

Tufted Titmouse

The blessings of warm summer days IN THE MIDDLE OF NOVEMBER never ceases to amaze me. I am, for one, not complaining. I put up the first of many to come bird feeders. I have seen about 27 species so far. Today I encountered a small group of American Goldfinches. They were accompanied by several Nuthatches; Yellow-bellied Sapsuckers; Tufted Titmouses and Cedar Waxwings.
