I've never seen it in France neither!!! You got a nice walk and nice observations. That was probably good for both your health and moral...

I am a novice birder have been birding for well over 20 years but always learning. My mother who was a birder and a big fan of Audubon and all things of nature. She could name every tree species here in our state and knew almost every bird species & if she didn't she would always have her field guide handy. She had all of us in the family start a "life List" so every time you saw a new bird you would write down in your field guide the date and location of seeing that particular bird. Thank you for reminding me what my mother really taught all of us and that was to appreciate the love of bird watching and id that bird, she taught us the love of nature. You are also teaching and showing what wonders there are to see out there. Keep up the wonderful work.jj-momscashbloghttp://momscashblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2906944037951213307.post-88724564952903903722010-02-18T02:29:51.008+00:002010-02-18T02:29:51.008+00:00I've never been to Farlington marshes, so let&...I've never been to Farlington marshes, so let's hope for some more sunny weather :-)Razboynikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13034625473793917927noreply@blogger.com
