Sanguine Tenacious Tidings

Birds

Make an A-Z list on a topic of your choosing. Stretch your creativity! After you finish your list, write a short narrative describing why you chose the list you did and how it relates to you.

I'm very happy being me, although sometimes I'd love to be a bird so that I could fly. The bird is powered by its own life and by its motivation. Faith is the bird that feels the light when the dawn is still dark. Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly.

I’m a bird watcher. I was an intern with the PURPLE MARTIN ASSOCIATION in 2004. And, I took a through the mail course with Cornell University about Bird Biology.

I have feeders in the front of the house and back of the house. Most of the birds on the list are species that visit my feeders.

A few are local to the Great Lakes. One or two are just there because their names meet the alphabet requirement.

Birds are interesting. Some communicate by sitting on the window if the feeders run low in the winter. Others tell the flocks when I am filling feeders with calls and screeches. Chickadees will sit on your fingers when you fill feeders. If birds get stuck on the back porch they fly out the open door when I point at the opening.

Bye gotta fly now!
