Monday, October 25, 2010. Sorry that we haven't been posting lately! We have been crazy busy with our suet company. And our community organization.

Portland Oregon Backyard Birds: May 2010
http://portlandbirds.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 21, 2010. We just learned of another wonderful birding organization that we wanted to let everyone know about. BirdLife International. Is a great group of people that are devoted to birds on a global scale. As their website states: "BirdLife is the world’s largest global alliance of conservation organizations that share a mission: to conserve wild birds, their habitats and global biodiversity". They also have a new Flickr group that you can view and join. And submit your own photos! A couple ...

Portland Oregon Backyard Birds: November 2010
http://portlandbirds.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 1, 2010. New York City Birding. Michelle and I went to New York for 3 days last week. We were pretty busy but we did get to spend about 9 hours birding in Central Park. It was incredible! If you have never birded Central Park before, you should definitely plan to do so. We saw dozen of species and about half a dozen Life List birds! We also were lucky enough to see Pale Male (the Red-Tailed Hawk) and then Zelda (the wild Turkey) in Battery Park. Have a great day and good birding! A Pereg...

Portland Oregon Backyard Birds: July 2010
http://portlandbirds.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 14, 2010. Long time, no post. We hope everyone is having a great summer and we will try to get posts up more frequently. A fledgling Downy Woodpecker being taught where to eat by momma. Shortly after this photo was taken, a Sharp-Shinned Hawk came through the yard and we suspect the mom was taken by him. We haven't seen her since, but the juvie still visits everyday. A Towhee on the top of Angel's Rest in the Gorge. A Swainson's Thrush on our way to the top of Nesmith Point. Portland, Ore...

Portland Oregon Backyard Birds: March 2010
http://portlandbirds.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 25, 2010. The yard has been a little quieter this winter than in past years. We're not sure exactly why. It has been a very mild winter here in Portland, so that may be part of the cause. Don't get me wrong, our yard is still pretty busy, just not quite as busy as the last few years. We have been missing the Pine Siskins and White-Crowned Sparrows. We have seen a total of 4 Pine Siskins this whole season. Usually, we have 100's of them. Posted by Seth and Michelle.

Portland Oregon Backyard Birds: April 2010
http://portlandbirds.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 8, 2010. We went to Commonwealth Park in Beaverton. Yesterday for a quick bird walk. The weather was pretty miserable, but the birding was awesome! We saw First of Year Osprey and Hutton's Vireo, as well as a ton of other birds. This is a great place to bird and is easy on the feet. An Osprey takes a fish in the lake, scaring the you know what out of a flock of American Wigeons. The Osprey then flew right over our heads, carrying the fish. A Yellow-Rumped Warbler, Myrtle variety. At the F...

Portland Oregon Backyard Birds: September 2010
http://portlandbirds.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 17, 2010. We're not sure how many of you know, but we (Michelle and I) also run a community organization called We've Got Time to Help. We have gathered a (ever expanding) group of unemployed volunteers that go out into our various communities and help those in their time of need. We have done all sorts of projects from roofing, plumbing, moving, yard work, etc. etc. Yesterday, we got the shock of a lifetime! It has been an incredible last couple of days.
