Backyard birding

Today I begin writing about birding in the backyard. As I begin this journey I keep in mind what I recently read about blogging: it is not about opinion but it is about viewing the world in a certain way and sharing that view with others. My view often centers around what is happening in my very own backyard. I am very fortunate to have a good size yard with a very large, old Oak tree which is inviting to the birds and a great source of shade for me in the summer!
Today I saw the following birds visit my simple plastic bird feeder:
 - a pair of Blue birds! The first sighting in my yard this season!
 - a pair of Brown-headed Nuthatch
 - several Tufted Titmouse
 - one female Red-bellied Woodpecker
 - several Carolina  Chickadees
 - a variety of Sparrows
 
I am preparing several workshops to be given at the garden center where I work. I will be using my blog to help me get my ideas together and share my thoughts with anyone who happens to pass by this way! May it be helpful to you and me!
 
As always the journey continues!
