Yeah, I've been slacking hard on the blog posting. Thankfully you all have been making up for it! Some of my fellow Bloggerhead Shrikes have even posted about their Birdathon adventures already!

Go team Bloggerhead Shrikes! I am loving the variety of birds and habitats that everyone has turned up so far!
The last week or so I've done some long dog walks, a morning up at Larch Mountain, some camping, and a ton of yard work. Here's what I have to show for it...

3. Thanks for the tip about Mason Wetlands. We checked it out, but didn't end up going there on Birdathon. Lots of Wood Ducks!
Hi. My name is Michele and I'm a blog slacker too.
ReplyDeleteToo much to do this time of year, huh? Pretty Hood pic and I always like the mutt photos.
A very nice pair of slacks are in the mail for you. I got them at Dillard's.
ReplyDeleteNah nah purdy photos as always, but the angry masses will be expecting double output from you in the future. Know this.
