We
actually started learning about birds in December, 2006, when we
bought our delightful Canon 20-D SLR camera -- and have been going crazy ever
since! We named our camera "Ireland," since monetarily it
replaced the trip, and now having purchased a 30-D as well, we find
ourselves limited to Texas! Fortunately, it's a huge state with a great
diversity of birds. We will be posting (and hopefully, improving!) photos on a continual basis.
Enjoy!! (If the square below is white, we haven't
found/photographed any of those birds yet!)
(Since we live in The Woodlands,
Texas, we have noted the birds that we have photographed and also seen
here. The Woodlands is quite a bird Mecca itself!)
