🕊In our busy society, it is very easy to miss all of God's Handiwork around us everyday. It is our desire that through this tiny peek into the detailed and diversified world of our backyard birds, you will get a glimpse of the magnificence of our God and Creator. Ultimately, we hope you will declare the Glory of God with us and possibly be inspired to engage in your own bird adventure.

WHAT IS BIRD WATCHING?
Bird watching is the observation of birds in their natural environment. In our case (as the backyard-er) their natural environment is our neighborhood. Whether you are newly "molted" to this hobby or experienced we hope you enjoy the Pictures of Our Birds! (30+ different birds in less than one year) and interesting things we have learned/observed about these diverse and beautiful creatures. |

The Red-Headed Woodpecker came back for over a month. He stayed with us daily until the beginning of August. He was absent from daily trips to the feeders for two weeks and returned daily mid-August.
