My interest in birds dates back to the 90s, when I was a mere teenager moved by the musical notes of the MagPie Robin. Back then I had restlessly looked for the name of the bird and even assumed it was a 'Lark', a name I had read in a bird book.
Joining BONC- "Barn Owl Nature Club"- took me miles ahead in learning about nature and birds and nurtured my interest like never before. I felt like I must maintain a log of all the birds I know and still remember and can identify (amongst the hundreds of other birds I once knew). With this blog post I have promised myself to rekindle my own interest in bird / nature watch and pursue this passion with a renewed energy.
And I must thank my husband for getting me started on this once again. (He saw a bird perched on a tree and took the effort of finding it's name. And that was enough to get me reminiscent and enthusiastic all over again....)

ReplyDeleteIs there any way to get a higher rez version of the bald eagle sitting on the perch with outstretched wings for a life size painting I am going to do? If so, could you email it to john(dot)enete(at)gmail(dot)com. I'll gladly send you a pick of the final painting.
ReplyDeleteHello, Sorry I never checked your comment earlier. I guess the image I had used in this blog post is no longer available for public access.
ReplyDeleteLike I mentioned above, these were pictures I found on the internet and I used their URLs directly in this post. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
