		 Since I started this thread and am asking for a self imposed ban I would also ask you JohnR to please remove this thread also. 
 
Let someone else who still is enthused about this site start another backyard birdwatching thread.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely. 
 
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook! 
 
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

				Backyard deer watching
			 
			 
			
		
		
		that time of year when seeing them is so easy 
5 visitors (one ran up the hill aways on the right) 
the snow is finally shallow enough that they can walk around! 
two Fawns in the group- nice to see.

		 Ventured a bit out of the FLA "backyard" to Shark Valley in the Everglades. Highlight of the day is the Purple Gallinule if you get to spot one. Saw six this time!  
 
Ding Darling on Sanibel, spotted two Golden Eagles. First time for those! 
 
No deers, just gators out the wazzoo. Did see one bunch of new borns which is neat to see. 
 
Back to the back yard......snow, no feed in the feeders, suit frozen like a brick covered with snow.....no birds....no gators
