I've been toying with the idea of blogging for awhile now. I have lots to say. Who cares? Do my experiences matter to anyone besides me? What about opinions? You know what they say about opinions!
I've seen lots of wildlife in my own backyard and it thrills me to pieces! There must be other nature-lovers out there; maybe some who live in cities and could live vicariously thru my eyes.
Here in Coastal Virginia, we are in the Atlantic Flyway. That means we have an extra helping of wonderful migrant birds stopping by Spring and Fall. We have been blessed with the presence of over 90 species of feathered flyers flitting and fluttering through since we started counting in '05. In Birds & Blooms Magazine, I once read an article about a Northern/ Midwestern woman who had an astounding 40-something species in her yard and it got me thinking. "We must have that many too!" Boy was I surprised! And, continue to be delighted and amazed at the wonders of wildlife watching!
Well, now that I've finally begun, my purpose here is to chronical happenings, photos and the general Joy
of just Living here in my little piece of Heaven.
