In Memory

This blog is in memory of my mom, who was called Crissy by her close friends and loved ones. Birding was one of her main passions. I was so fortunate to learn many types of birds as a result of her many, many, MANY backyard bird counts, bird hikes and from listening to her bird tapes. Roger Tory Peterson was a household name, Bird Watcher's Digest was always somewhere to be found as was Living Bird. Binoculars were at every window it seemed. I don't know nearly as many birds as she did, but I know a good amount. I am a bit rusty, but once I re-learn one, I tend to remember. I hope you enjoy my journey to document the birds that I come across and hopefully I will someday catch a photo of a Pileated Woodpecker and capture a shot of a Red-tailed Hawk closeup. For you Mommy, I love you and miss you!
