Well yeah, I have many favorites. I mean I can't think of a bird I don't like, really. As a Philadelphian I love the scrappy city birds too!

Ducks have been one of my top 3 favorite animals almost since birth (I had a duck stuffie an aunt made for me that was my prime lovey). When in Canada I got close to some mergansers and enjoyed their grumpy quack. Since I am grumpy most of the time these days, I feel them deeply.

My current oldest cat is named Foss (and is a tabby, but with a regular length tail). First cat of my adult life was Pobble.

Happy to be in Philly and be able to turn off the TV sound and play Merrill Reese and Mike Quick on the radio. Merrill cracks me up. "Vanya Sax changed his name. It used to be Vanya Clarinet."

My husband's cousin's wife claimed to have never seen a junco. When said cousin exclaimed at seeing a bunch of juncos in the snow under the feeder, she ran to look and said "is it somewhere among all those snowbirds?" That was the common name she knew!

Happy to! I'm sure it has other common names as well. A lot of them are red but then there was this yellow variety as well!
