Ever think of that? Betcha didn't did ya? Hah, I thought not.  |
I need to get a guide too. My brother can name any bird, by sight or sound, any time. I love birds.
Coming this spring to a computer near you, watch the peregrine falcons nest, pop out babbies, and nurture said babbies at the Boonshoft Museum webcam in Dayton OH.
