One blog I went onto the woman said she thought Cardinals were a 'made up' bird until someone told her they were real! lol! Isn't that sad?<BR/><BR/>So you have a blog, great writing skills, new binoculars, now you just need a great camera to capture it all!<BR/><BR/>Thank you for adding me to your blog roll! <BR/><BR/>: )<BR/><BR/>SharonA New England Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04345194920944256200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3770651210715066081.post-84733527220918295372008-11-08T15:03:00.000-05:002008-11-08T15:03:00.000-05:00Kallen, I came from Jayne's blog.

I had always loved feeding birds, but I came to love photographing them really knowing them! I'm still always in a hurry but now I finally have a hobby - a way to de-stress.<BR/><BR/>I enjoyed your entries here!<BR/><BR/>MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02040099513110890878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3770651210715066081.post-34705344014673319112008-11-08T11:48:00.000-05:002008-11-08T11:48:00.000-05:00I came over from Jayne's and I enjoyed your story ...I came over from Jayne's and I enjoyed your story about the chickadee. We have them too and they're a delight.

I wish I could talk her into starting a blog to post the photos she takes and record the stories she has to share, but so far I haven't had any luck convincing her that blogging is not complicated.<BR/><BR/>...and 40 is still YOUNG!
