Bill is the carpenter who worked on our house remodel for two years. While he was here, he kept a bird list and built bird houses for our many feathered friends. He still works with us and updates his list regularly. Here is Bill's Bird List as of 6-16-08.

Our neighbor, Lynn, also sighted a baby golden eagle. We were fortunate enough to see it, too.
