OT- Painted Bunting
I saw my first Painted Bunting in over 30 years this morning in my back
yard near one of the feeders :o) Last time I saw one was in the mid-'70's, I imagine they've been around, just not in my neighborhood. http://www.mbr-pwrc.usgs.gov/id/framlst/i6010id.html |
Pretty bird.

If you are interested in birds, check out the recent article over on CNN's
web-site with some confirmed sightings of an Ivory-Billed Woodpecker in a forest in Arkansas. A truly fantastic sighting if it is indeed an Ivory-billed. Sadly, you will not find one of those in your backyard :( "hayduke" wrote in message ...
