Link Of The Week

We interrupt your regularly scheduled TWIT post to bring you an early Link of the Week.

The great folks at the Audobon Society and other organizations are sponsoring something very cool this weekend - The Great Backyard Bird Count. They're asking people all over the country to take the time this weekend to observe and keep track of all of the different birds that they see in their backyards. As soon as I heard about this I knew that I had to be involved. Visit http://gbbc.birdsource.org/gbbcApps/checklist and enter your zip code and you can print out a list of the birds that are native to your area. Check off the ones you see from Friday February 18 till Monday February 21 and then send the form in. I've already printed out the form for here at The Compound and the 'Rents will be on full alert tomorrow, looking for any and all birds.

This is a pretty cool thing going on all across the country. Please take the time this weekend to notice the birds around you.
