Hey all you birdwatchers! I have dozens of ROBINS in the yard! Spring is most assuredly nearby when that happens! I planted trees and shrubs with berries to attract the birds. So far I know the robbins adore the Hawthorn berries this time of year. The Cardinals come to that tree too! LOVE the male cardinal's coloring. Gorgeous red, for those who don't know of NorthAmerican Cardinals.

We have purple finches too. CUTE little songbirds...they love the Serviceberries! (that tree and similar shrubs are very attractive to the birds, the Killdeer fight all the others for them!)

'Twil do just fine, Zeeke! uh what is the 75 for,anyway?! Welcome to the forum!
Thanks for doing the questionaire, btw! http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...es/biggrin.gif Rummage around on some of the back pages of this forum and you'll find other such things...I think Melusine had a getting to know each other post not long ago...and somewhere here and in BG2 is the divided Icebreaker thread I set up before moving to this board from our old one. A search might turn them up (search function, not physically looking...you'd be retired long before you'd find it all!)

Just a thoughtless poem about birds-

I saw a birdy in a tree
He looked so pretty from there to me
I lured him down with a piece of bread
Then I crushed his little head

Ok, before I'm castigated too much I like birds! I just had to be a smartass

Btw, does either of the both have a meaning in English ? I think I'm remembering that you told that you got yours by being nicknamed by friends. By why ? (If you don't mind me inquiring.)

Ducks, just another entirely different species of birds I like a lot. They are just funny, especially whenever they endeavor to move "ashore". And ducklings are even funnier and sweet.


Ramon - I love it that you like birds so much too! Wow, whatta guy! http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...miles/wink.gif And my name Zekke is just a nickname I got back in highschool because it semi-rhymed with my boyfriend's. Some friends still call me it to this day for some reason. Dunno. Just seemed to stick I guess! http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...iles/smile.gif

You must be pretty computer savvy. You seem to have figured out all the intricacies of this board right away! http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...iles/smile.gif So many newbies (I personally hate that word cause it sounds like you're calling someone a baby!) have trouble with quotes, smileys, etc. in the beginning. Hey, now all you need is a good sig! Have you tried to find one? I know Stealthy has a site with a few to choose from.?? http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...iles/smile.gif

LoA - that is SO HORRID that I can't even quote it. You made me cry. http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...iles/frown.gif I'm glad you put that you didn't mean it, or I would have to come over and sort you out. http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...es/biggrin.gif

Ramon - ducks are one of the best birds. I love when they make tiny little quacking noises when they think you may have food for them

But IMHO Penguins are the absolute ultimate bird. They are so funny, when I see them I always laugh!

Thanks for the compliment. I've spent some time chatting and posting other places, so I've got most of it figured out. I'm working on the signature, but I just can't find one that I like.

Epona, here in Germany we have a cartoonist, named Uli Stein, whose cartoon's chief protagonists are mice, cats and penguins. He started out with the mice and the cats, classic constellation, later on he added the penguins who, over time, have become the true superstars - you and I know why http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...miles/wink.gif . His books are very funny and tremendously successful. Unfortunately, I doubt that there are English translations. http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...iles/frown.gif His cartoons are also very popular as postcards.

LW, Zeeke, thanks !

Good night !
