And there is no "edge" habitat. It's either lawn, beautiful garden, or huge tall trees. Not much in between. Plus there are many cats and some serious lawn care chemicals. We did manage to see a nice magnolia warbler, the usual gulls and cormorants, loads of martins, and a rose-breasted grosbeak. Missed the Chautauqua red-headed woodpeckers which apparently have moved their colony off the grounds. <BR><BR>SF: Many thanks for your kind words. This is one of my favorite images I've ever taken myself. And it was pure serendipity, like so much of what is good in life--unexpected and amazing.Bill of the Birdshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16000245161006147448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2552045987668023231.post-55974210976609465472006-08-11T11:36:00.000-04:002006-08-11T11:36:00.000-04:00When are you going to put all your poems and photo...When are you going to put all your poems and photos in a book?
