  Very cool.  I had no idea that there was a Word Bird day.  I really love birds and need to get a new feeder in back.  Hubby just put up a squirrel baffle.  The cute squirrels still are able to feed on the ground, but so far the baffle is keeping out the pesky rodents.  The blue heron has only been back once briefly about 2 weeks ago.  The bright green parrots have only visited once.

The list was launched to mark the passing of World Migratory Bird Day, which is Saturday, May 8.

The list has been developed and vetted by local birders and ornithologists and builds on a list published in 2013 by the J.N. Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge............

I hope you all gave someone "the bird" yesterday.

I generally start out each day by "throwing the bird" in the general direction of Washington,DC.
