I had hoped to be able to add Yellow-rumped Warbler (above), Townsend's Warbler, Sharp-shinned Hawk, Great Blue Heron, or a Purple Finch.

I plan to keep a list on my sidebar for December too. I think December's list may be all birds I see (anywhere) for the month. Would you like to keep a list too? If so, let me know and I'll come check out your list!

  1. Hi. I am so glad that you stopped by because I am just loving your blog. We are bird nuts here as well.

    I've been doing crocheted stars almost exactly like yours. I would like to block and starch them, but I have never used a stiffener on yarn. Anyhow, they are so cute. :)

  5. Jodi: I haven't used starch either, but I contemplated it. I wet them and layed them out flat to dry to take better shape.
    Jen: cool! it feels "official" to have a dotcom, huh?
    Heather: no I only participated in Feeder Watch that one year. I will probably do it again sometime though. I'll watch for some baking photos on your blog ;)
    Max: Great! I will check in, your blog has been a bit quiet lately and I miss it.
