Between the excitement of Peregrine 568s recovery and getting ready for tomorrow’s book signing, I almost forgot that today is Skywatch Friday. You create a blog with photos of sky and then you add your link to the Skywatch site. While there, you should check out everyone’s photos of sky. Some of my favorites this [ Read More ]
Boy oh Boy. There’s a lot goin’ on for me the next week–but it’s all FUN! Tomorrow, Saturday, August 23 is my book signing/release part for my second book City Birds/Country Birds at Cardinal Corner (both locations) and Cinnamon the Disapproving Rabbit (and Non Birding Bill) will be there too: Book Signing Times:August 23, 2008:10 [ Read More ]
Well, this blog entry is a fun one to put together. First, I just want to say how sweet it was to get photos of Peregrine 568 in the sun and not under the clinic lights. For new readers, this bird has some history in the blog. At the end of September in 2007, I [ Read More ]
What the heck is going on with the squirrels on our bathroom window ledge?? We’ve had one squirrel trying to make a nest on the ledge and the wind and branches periodically knock it down. A month ago, I had two squirrels hanging out there. But on and off all summer, some squirrel has been [ Read More ]
So, here is a test flight for Peregrine 568. She flew beautifully. More soon: I highly recommend going to the YouTube Page and click on “Watch In High Quality” to really get the full effect.
One of the things I wasn’t able to talk about right away from the Swarovski Blogger Event (or Swarblogski as Non Birding Bill calls it) was that we got to see the new Swarovski ELs. They just debuted them at Bird Fair so now I’m allowed to talk. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting that much of [ Read More ]
Okay, I need lots of fingers crossed. We may have some exciting news tomorrow for a certain falcon we have all come to know in the blog. It’s VERY tentative, but still let’s all think the good though for the next 24 hours. So, from my bud, Mark Martell from Minnesota Audubon about the proposed [ Read More ]
Here is the Twin Cities Live link to my segment if you would like to watch. Note that I’m about three inches taller than usual–they made me stand on a stool. I’m not sure how long it’s going to be up. And, how about a Birds and Beers on Thursday, August 28 at 6pm. I [ Read More ]
I’ll be on Twin Cities Live, today–Monday, August 18. In the promo, one of the hosts actually says, “Birdchick is in da HOUSE!” If you’re around today between 3pm – 4pm check it out. MC Hammer is supposed to be on too. Wonder if that will be live or by satellite–did you know that he [ Read More ]
So, I’ve had a back log of blogging and have been trying to catch up. I have a vague list in my head of topics and birds to talk about and get them in the blog when I can. One of those is getting my 500th bird. It happened quite by accident. I was out [ Read More ]
