Sigh. I am a very busy professional and an amateur birder. While I post
occasionally I really never expect a response. I just know most of the list is
to share. I love obol. On another note we are having another family of Juncos
in our Christmas wreath. Our fledglings in Spring flew away the end of May. So
cool. Just wished Mom would nest somewhere else at is at the front door and
she flys out of the nest each time we approach the front door. Humble birder.
