What’s Up?
Rain, rain…
While the North East of USA was getting heavy snow storms, we were getting rain and more rain last week. While I write this post, it’s sunny but cold outside, at least it’s not raining. My birds are coming at different times, which makes it difficult to get good photos. I can’t spend hours of sitting behind the camera waiting for them to show up. It’s still too cold to be out there exposed to the frigid breeze!
I know, Spring is almost here, then I will be happy to see my backyard busy with birds coming back from migration.

Jekyll Island – Georgia – Part # 1 of 2
In 1733, General James Oglethorpe named Jekyll Island in honor of Sir Joseph Jekyll, his friend and financier from England. In the late 1800s, Jekyll Island became an exclusive hunting club for families with names like Rockefeller, Morgan, Vanderbilt, Pulitzer, and Baker. The once private retreat is now part of The Jekyll Island Club National Historic Landmark District, one of the largest preservation projects in the southeast.
In 1947, the Governor and the Georgia state legislature established Jekyll Island as a State Park. Today, the island is a special sanctuary for each of us – and the Jekyll Island Authority is proud to share our island’s history.
