Hi y'all! It's been a few days since I blogged so I figured I better post something. I know y'all have been just sittin' on pins an' needles waiting for my news !LOL!
If you recall, in my last post, I mentioned I had seen a new type of sparrow on my last birdwatching outing. I have since found out it was a Swamp Sparrow. Big Deal, right? Well it was to me since it was a Lifer for me. To a diehard birder, a Lifer is a Big Deal! A Lifer simply means the first time you have seen that particular bird in your life. Most of us keep list and check off each species as we ID it. I'm not obsessed with keeping the list as some are but I do get a thrill out of checking off a new bird. I have attached a picture of the Swamp Sparrow just in case your interested. Oh, I almost forgot about the "Getting Older" part of my blog (How could I forget that! HA!) I found out today that I have Gout! I am now officially older! ;((
FYI: My doc just told me that I do not have gout after all. He took more blood to determine what it is but I haven't heard yet. Probably just ol' Arthur Itis
