I know there are a lot of bird watchers on this site! Maybe you are like me and set up a bird garden for your cats rather than yourself!
I know I did!

I'm not claiming to know ANYTHING about birds, so forgive me if I get anything wrong!

I'm going to start off with birds that are native to my area because I know they are pretty common in most areas of the US/Canda.



I'm going to start with my favorite bird! (my granny brought one home as a pet from Italy, where she is from, so I grew up with him more or less)

I would have to agree, it's a great picture! The prettiest sparrow I've ever seen!

It was so much fun! His name was Robby, no idea why
, like I said my granny was from Italy and not good with english. It was actually illegal to have him as a pet here in the states and illegal to bring him back on the plane
My granny doesn't like to mind rules!
His favorite snack was cheetos! My granny always babysat me, so it was lots of fun to play with him almost every day!

Wishing I were anywhere but here
Here is one of our endangered birds. Where I live it is not really endangered any longer because of trapping potential predators. It is still listed as endangered in other parts of the state.
