This blog is a running photo-documentary of the animal life I see in my yard.  It will be mostly birds, but on occasion, I might add other organisms, such as mammals, leps (butterflies) and odes (dragonflies and damselflies).  

I moved here in January, 1997.  I am starting this blog in November, 2007, nearly 11 years later.  My first post includes a list of everything recorded in my yard so far, with a commentary on some of the highlights.
