Dotty old lady, interested in ornithology, especially domestic galliformes.
And every other bird on the planet.
Oh, and a bit of a misanthrope. (But not grumpy!)

Photo, (very poor, sorry!), of one of last year's juvenile Cooper's to hatch and grow here with three siblings.
Miracle of miracles- the mom, (I'm presuming,) has managed to nest under my very nose and has 3 new white downed babies!
Talk about a cure for depression!!!

As I usually only check out the Birds! line, I'm pretty happy and the photos and count results soothe my soul.
Is there any one entity or person to whom Iay say thank you? I also include the merry multitude of posters who share their many successes and few mishaps.
If this fits you, thank you!!!

Downy's for catching your interest!
I've a query I've considered for a few years. Does anyone know if Grackles and/or Redwings attack and eat the brains if sparrows and finches?
I've seen Grackles make feints at smaller birds under feeders, seen corpses, but no actual killing.
Has anyone seen this?

This meme shows a T. rex in the clouds, speaking to a domestic hen at the right. The text reads, "remember who you are!"

Totally insane. First, a gym full of people. Then an overflow crowd. Then an overflow-overflow crowd, and an overflow-overflow-overflow crowd.
More than 9,000 people came out in Warren, MI to say NO to oligarchy & NO cuts to Social Security, Medicaid, and VA programs.

I have a question regarding salamanders, but couldn't find a specific group to help. I remember seeing, years ago, a 3 inch, orange, adorable salamander with black or brown spots, two rows along its back. They were dots, not rings, as in a red newt. Area is central Kentucky and wet scrubland.
