Did You Know

Canonsburg, PA is the birthplace of this strapping lad.


Who is that you ask???  It's Bobby Vinton of course.  Who is that you still wonder??? Go ahead and google or youtube him, that is what I did after I saw the street named after him.

Ornithology

I am very intrigued with all the different birds I have seen in the last few days. I may even start carrying my binoculars when we go out for a walk.  Okay, that is going way to far, but I did tell Erin we need to get some bird seed for them. 

The view from our kitchen is perfect for bird watching.  All of the trees in the area are also perfect for watching the birds.  This morning we saw several Orioles fighting in the air.  Last week Lily spotted a woodpecker in our Birch tree pecking away.  And on our Sunday walk we saw Bluejays and Cardinals.  Very colorful birds out here.

Didn't Grandpa Graybill have a bird book he would sketch in??  For some reason I remember seeing that as a kid in his office.
