Favorite Photos:
My bird list to date for 2014 stands at 149, with 17 new birds added to my life list (Alaska sure helped in this category)! My yard list for 2014 has slowly ticked up to 39.
My favorite bird of 2Q2014 was: Bald Eagle
Funny, when I reflect on these photos and lists, some of them seem like they occurred an awfully long time ago. Spring is a wonderful season to be out in nature and see so many different things! Fun, fun, fun!
