Very nice photos. I am in the learning stage. Trying to get my hubby interested in bird watching since he is retired. Very informative. Thank you so much for this educational experience. Our back yard has many trees (1 acre) and the other day there were bird watchers across the street looking towards our property. Now I know the beauty of bird watching.

The other day I saw a bird on my steps which I have never seen before and I am trying to find a pictorial guide to search to see if I can identify it. At first I thought it was a lovebird until it turned around and I saw the facial markings. It is very fustrating trying to find a picture guide on birds that will let you search for a specific type of bird. If you know where I can find one on the internet please e-mail me so I can identify this bird. Thanks, Frank Moorhouse.

Comments:
I've enjoyed your web page thoroughly. My wife and kids saw some kind of shore bird in a stream in the next town from ours. they were trying to describe it tome, as something of a small egret or heron. It almost sounds like a night heron but i get contrad cting descriptions."its sort of fat like a hawk, with legs not as long as a heron,but it looked like a seagull", that sort of stuff. So i was looking for a web site to find some shore birds to show them and i stumbled onto your web site. Its refreshing t find someone with the knowledgeof both the birds and technology to share with others. Good luck to you and your web page. when i have the time I will definitely check it out again. P.S. great shots of the bear. Thanks for a great web page, RYELYN@AOL.CO

I'm impressed that you are sixteen and have such a neat hobby, also your sisters...I have two birdfeeders and just love watching the birds outside my kitchen window...I have had cardinals bring their babies and once I had a blind mockingbird (although he idn't eat any seed) just ended up on the perch. And I think I have the yellow and red finches, also. Several black capped chickadees and nuthatches and the sparrows, etc. come...you probably have different birds up north than we do down south. Anyway, njoyed your page and I'm going to look at your bird pictures now. Good luck in your hobby, you sound like a great bunch of kids.

Comments:
Very nice web site, Benjiman. I have a wild little Chickadee who has been "flitting" around my yard, coming to my windows and watching me work (I have my office at home) and is the most adorable thing. I haven't figured "her" (just a guess) out yet. Sh is the cutest thing, and really seems to follow me around on the outside of the house, from room to room. If I haven't opened my curtains or blinds in a room I am in, she seems to be at that window, "telling" me to open it up. I don't know if it is jus my imagination or not, but she sure has been a pleasant addition to my days. I talk to her, and she seems to know my voice well, and she looks my way. Since I work at home, I am on the phones the majority of the day. I think she has grown accustomed t my voice and that is why she seems to have "attached" herself to me. She isn't this way with my husband at all. In fact, when he comes around me outside, she will back off. Too funny!!! Anyway, I am going to read your articles with joy, and wish you wonderful future that you seem to have a perfect start to. May God bless you and reward you for all the joy you bring to others in your "calling". Sincerely, Roxie

Great site. I am a 3rd grade teacher and just did a theme on backyard birding this past spring. I hope some of my students caught the birding bug. How did you hand train the chickadees. Any help would be appreciated. Great Job Ben.

You have a very nice site.I have a small backyard habitat and have registered with the National Wildlife Federation.We have planted shrubs,prennials,annuals that attract the wildlife.We also feed the birds with bird feeders.The four main ingredients for a backyard habitat are to have food, water,shelter,and place to raise their young.We hav done all this.We also have a small pond we made with running water to help attract the birds.The Mass.Audubon recently had a feature article of our backyard in their magazine ,which was very nice. We have made a video of our habitat and how we put it together. Keep up your good work.

The world needs more students of birding and nature such as you. You've got a good website fostered by your enthusiasm for the things you love. It takes more than an ability to identify birds and note their behaviours to develop a good website; it takes intelligence,diligence and ability to convey your observations and feelings in English. You've done it here.

My friend Doris and I drove down the Mississippi river to Lake Pepin area. We went over to Wisconsin at Wabasha. During our trip we saw 28 eagles, one was right in a tree by the road, 1 blue Heron, 3 hawks (don't know what kind) 1 red winged blackbird, pair of Mallard ducks, 1 pair of Canada Geese. Had a wonderful day. 50+ degrees temp and windy. Raining all night. I really do enjoy your posts. Your descriptions make me feel as if I am walking in the woods with all of you. thank you for your time. Judy, a grandmom of 7. I have tried twice to set up a nice web site, but have not quite got the hang of it. someday!!!

I'm so glad that I found this site. I especially enjoy reading your journal, and learning that we have the same birds that you see here in Fort Worth at our feeders. But I've never had more than 40 mourning dove at my location. I can't believe you've seen sooooo many. With our flock of mourning doves is a lone white wing dove who seems to feel right at home. We also have 4 to 6 inca doves every day. Do you participate in Cornell's Project Feeder Watch? If not you should. Thanks for sharing your love of birds in Cyberspace.
