One Year

It has now been a year since Dad passed away.   We miss him so much and think of him everyday.   My way of remembering him is by keeping three bird feeders going in my backyard in Corvallis.  I have one for mixed bird seed, one for suet, and one for black sunflower seeds.   A wonderful mix of juncos, jays, towhees, nuthatches, and chickadees are regular visitors.  Occasionally we get a visit from a flicker or a yellow-rumped warbler.   I can now identify most of the regulars without having to peek at the bird book.  Dad would have been proud !    It is fun to be learning more about these creatures that give him so much pleasure during his life.
