Gorgeous pictures. We live near a migration trap — I think that’s what bird watchers call it? Plus we have a huge tree in our back yard, probably the tallest tree in town. So we get birds the likes of which I had never seen before we moved here.
I should get a better camera and take pictures. But first I need to finish writing my book.
