I birdwatch sometimes. My great aunt is a huge birdwatcher (the kind that can identify a bird by it's call). I have several birdbooks, and binoculars, so why not?

That's the first time I've ever searched with the filtering on, so I hope you schmucks are happy.

Oh aye? I may well do that. I was only really downloading that 'un because I have a cover of it. Ground Zero 'Plays Standards'. Arguably the best covers album made.

I saw something like a pheasant in the city today, and as I walked up to it, I saw 2 lovely, bright bluejays. All 3 birds are fairly rare around here.
I had my camera with me, but it ran out of batteries before I could snatch a shot. Anyway, it made me think of this thread, and I thought the story was worthy of a mention. |

normally when people say chips now i just think of french fries anyway.
which are way better than what you all call crisps (and what we call chips), i might add.

We don't call anything 'crisps'. It's all chips. Hot chips for your fries, and just chips for packet chips. I've heard 'crisps' used on Aerican movies. Never heard an Australian call them that.

I saw a Kingfisher today on a telephone wire:
There are a lot of birds here right now. There are many waterfowl wintering on the lakes, including a big flock of White Pelicans, which you normally see at the ocean, I guess. I recently read a book about the rediscovery, in Arkansas, of the Ivory-Billed Woodpecker, which was supposedly extinct. Louisiana is also a hot spot in the search, especially the Atchafalaya Basin, to which I live very near. It's an interesting story, if anybody's interested they have a lot of info and a video that proves it still exists HERE. When I was a kid, I saw a Pileated Woodpecker in the forests where I grew up in Georgia and thought I had rediscovered the Ivory-Billed, but was, of course, wrong. They look very similar. I was a precocious little naturalist. |
