hello everyone,

i don't have a birdfeeder (landlord won't allow anything to hang
outside the building, alas) although i am not sure how many birds i'd
attract to a feeder anyway since i live on the 13th floor. that said,
i still manage to see a lot of birds, although nothing terribly
unusual. my last bird of 2010 was a european (common) magpie, which
coincidentally -- was my first bird of 2010 -- and my first bird of
2011 was a small flock of carrion crows, flying over the roof of my
building on their way to where ever they go during the day.

you are invited to read more about this, and if you like, to add your
comments here;
