Hi group ... I'm new here -- just joined last week ... met Bill at
the Refuge and he's been a GREAT HELP in locating and identifying
birds for me !!! ... THANKS Bill !!!!!! ... I've only began figuring
out one bird from the next in March but it's great fun ... and I do
my best to photograph them all !!! ... I have a website going for my
bird images --- nothing earth shattering but just nice fun images of
what I can "capture" on the days I'm there ...

here's the links to the Oriole and Thrush which Bill mentioned ...

Bullock's Oriole

Swainson's Thrush

the rest of the website is in constant state of being worked on ...
quite a few "trips" haven't even had any bird images worked up yet
!!! ... but feel free to browse anyways ... maybe someday it will all
be together ...
