I was just in the middle of deciding I wouldn't go
	      out in the woods this morning when something caught
	      my eye. There was a bird right outside my window, on
	      the sill. By the time  I grabbed for my camera
	      it had flown away, but not too far. And there were
	      others. In the next few minutes I got several really
	      good shots from my window and the skylight. Five
	      different species by my count. Even  the State Bird
	      made room in his schedule to drop by. What an honor.
	      And I didn't have to lace up my boots.
