Shirls Gardenwatch - blog

Shirls Gardenwatch is a lovely blog about plants, birds and other wildlife in a garden in Perthshire, Scotland.

Shirl's blog is a joy to read because of her friendly banter about everything happening in the garden plus she shares camera views from the nestboxes and bird and wildlife videos.

Ecobirder blog

I was delighted to discover the Ecobirder blog with the tagline "Birding,Wildlife,Environment", because I'm a keen birder and I'm also very interested in other wildlife and about environment issues. Also, I noticed that 'Ecobirder' is from Minnesota. I'm from Minnesota too and even though I reside (happily) in England, I still hanker for 'home' and enjoy reading blogs by Minnesotans.

As you would expect, there are lots of stunning photos of birds (and other creatures) on the blog so if you love birds and wildlife, be sure and check out Ecobirder.
