BIG Changes!

Welcome to the new Landfill Bird Blog! I've spent a lot of time putting together the new format and it is looking great! There are still some issues to iron out like text color but for the most part the site update is complete. There are lots of new features to check out. Starting from the top you will find the HOME, POSTS RSS, and COMMENTS RSS buttons that will allow you to easily bookmark our updates. Below that you will find the CONTACT, CALENDAR, and RARE BIRD MAP pages. I encourage you to check these pages out as they are great features for allowing you to find my contact info and where all the best birds have been seen on the landfill. At the top of the right side bar are social bookmarking buttons that allow you to share the site with your friends! The Flickr photostream grid has been moved to the sidebar along with a list of species that have been seen on the landfill to date. Last but not least is the flying goose favicon at the top to add that extra touch. I'm excited to bring this update to the Landfill Bird Blog and I hope you enjoy!

Fall

Wait, breeze blowing
Seedheads dance their stilted jig
Yesterdays life blood blows across the ground
Raked into piles after gently falling down
Stop, squirrels scurry
Hoarding mast for winters freeze
Berries ripen as robins bite them
Carried aloft on autumns breeze

Morning Menagerie

There were a lot of good birds out and about this morning. A group of Cedar Waxwings have been around lately, possibly eating Japanese Honeysuckle berries that grow rampant out here. These guys finally stayed put long enough for me to get a long distance shot of them.


This Song Sparrow was doing a balancing act before landing on the fence.

Signs of Fall

Finally it feels like fall here in Kentucky. After what seems like 5 months of summer, colder weather has returned. There has been very little fall color this year because everything is brown and brittle. However, I was able to find a few signs of autumn.
