Back by Popular Demand!

Well, Bill said he missed reading it. Been lazy lately, not so much on the jogging front as the blogging front. Hate to drag a camera along so will do some text media instead of multimedia stuff for while. Went 5 miles yesterday on Dickcissel Field which is ripe with a corn crop now. As I said earlier they have closed off the road to traffic (except for farming) and the road is filling in with grasses and other flora I can't ID as of yet. It's interesting to see the deer tracks everywhere and my jogging prints along side. Maybe I'm a shapeshifter.

Went out to Whitehouse Road last weekend with some friends to pick strawberries at Cottles Strawberry Farm. Tons of Bluebirds out there and a few Indigo Buntings and Blue Grosbeaks. Will post my last White House Road birding list later today.

On the home front, Fred's Birch tree is getting so big that the squirrels are jumping from it to my platform feeder. We cut it back some and everything seems ok for now. No birds to report on but it is nice to hear the croaking rasp of the Great-crested Flycatchers in the neighboring yards.
