I am enjoying the course.  I just retired and have not had the time I would like to have to learn more so I am starting with this class.  I want to be a photographer of birds and have taken many pictures of birds but I have a long way to go.  I was driving home from a hike not far from my home in Wayne, PA and saw two black vultures just having a meal!  I have never seen vultures in such an urban area before.  I saw what I think was a swallow on a hike this weekend but did not have my camera so I will go back and get a picture to help me narrow down the bird.  Ususally they are flying so fast it is hard to get them in focus.  This place had nesting boxes and they were perched so I think I will be able to get a picture.  I do have lots of visitors to my feeders and this week the cardinals, downey woodpecker and the Red-winged blackbirds have been busy.
