I woke early this morning and sitting here drinking my coffee in the early light I am delighted at the birds singing in the woods
thank you Rachel Carson!

(4,452 posts)Since I pretty much don't sleep, I'm almost always up when they start. I live being in a somewhat rural location where it's fairly quiet and pretty much everything is green. There is an amazing variety of species even got to see a bald eagle at 100 feet.
This year is the first in a long time I see tons of yellow finches. I think I'm starting to take after my old man, love the birds. Don't think I'll ever get to the point where they land in my hand.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
