Title: The ABC's of birds

The ABC's of birds

  :sparrow:      :eagle2:      :mini-bird:
Let's start tomorrow with a new "The ABC's of birds"
You can write a post about a bird that starts with the letter of the day.
Write something you know about this bird, a memory of this bird, or send a picture that you made or found on the internet.
It would be very nice when some "lurkers" will send some posts too.
You can already prepare a post for some letter you like and send it on the right day.

For Monday, November first and Tuesday, November second we have the letter A
For Wednesday, November third and Thursday, November fourth , we have the letter B
For Friday and Saturday, November 5 and 6, we have the letter C
For Sunday and Monday, November 7 and 8, we have the letter D.

I will give more letters next week.
It would be nice if you'll share some bird information here.
 :heart: greetings Aafke

It would be nice when a lot of people will send a bird for the last letters. You don't need a lot of bird knowledge, we have the internet, where you can find everything!!!!
I miss a lot of people here.
Carla, you have such nice birds in your garden and beautiful pictures!!!!

I'm a lot behind with sending the birds, but I will try to send a few as soon as possible.

Thanks for starting the letters without the shedule, it isn't really necessary but I will give it for the last letters

The letter S on Tuesday 7 and Wednesday 8 December
The letter T on Thursday 9 and Friday 10 December
The letter U on Saturday 11 and Sunday 12 December
The letter V on Monday 13 and Tuesday 14 December
The letter W on Wednesday 15  and Thursday 16 December
The letter X on Friday 17  and Saturday 18 December
The letter Y on Sunday 19 and Monday 20 December

Thanks, Aafke, for extending your kind invitation -- you are very thoughtful!  I think that it is a good thing to be all inclusive in this kind of group participation, as the more people involved, the more we all are exposed to, the more we learn!!  And, yes, the more fun we have!!

Same goes for me, Carla - lots of fun! I did not post anything myself, tho I was tempted to find birds' names in Irish.

Slainte!
