My World in Grays

I’ve been counting different kinds of birds I’ve seen since spring started here in the northern hemisphere, and I’m up to 27 just in our housing area. I’ve even considered buying a small pair of binoculars so I can see them better.

I love the pictures you post so I can see things close up. Thank you.

Thank you so much for sharing this! Here is a bird from every continent for you! (Eurasia is one continent).
