Otherwise, I can burn an entire evening just on one post.<BR/><BR/>I saw my first palm warbler the other day--in my yard! I was so excited.

Please continue to keep doing what you're doing and don't shorten up your posts just because someone else does a post in 10 minutes, because I (and many others, I suspect) would be really disappointed if you start changing now.<BR/><BR/>P.S. Good luck with your field trip on Saturday. I hope you get a good group of birders.RuthieJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663411478574192825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8147631697089273467.post-52011078455970866322007-10-03T16:05:00.000-05:002007-10-03T16:05:00.000-05:00Patrice-That's exciting to get Warblers right in t...Patrice-That's exciting to get Warblers right in the backyard!I rarely do.<BR/><BR/>Jayne-It's interesting to watch the sudden changes.-Be at the meeting place at 7:30 am.<BR/><BR/>Mary-I can tell by looking at your posts it must take a long time!<BR/><BR/>Lynne-I understand.-I'm like a turtle when it comes to writing.-I usually have an idea of what I want to say, but don't know how to express it in words.Larryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17955054342034509500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8147631697089273467.post-48663541128130597892007-10-03T08:13:00.000-05:002007-10-03T08:13:00.000-05:00It's a rare thing when I can do a quick post.

Good luck- I know you'll do a terrific job!<BR/>I'm headed out to buy some millet to scatter under my feeders for the incoming sparrows. I'm happy to have them back. No juncos in my yard yet!

I'm sure you will move them along at a good pace!<BR/><BR/>I spend way too much time posting. After I come up with the main idea of my post, it takes me 20 minutes just to download photos from the camera and choose and save the ones I want to use - I usually post at least ten. Another 15 minutes to load them into Flickr. Another 30-45 minutes writing the post and revising. Another 30 minutes to cram it all into a post and format it. Average Posting time: 1.5 to 2 hours. :o/Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02040099513110890878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8147631697089273467.post-36319273829977088752007-10-03T05:53:00.000-05:002007-10-03T05:53:00.000-05:00OK Larry, what time should we all be there for the...OK Larry, what time should we all be there for the field trip? ;c)<BR/><BR/>I'm noticing a huge influx of return visitors this week. Almost as if someone flipped a switch or something. Where I only had doves and house finches last week, now all my early spring visitors are returning.Jaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14057094040409159429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8147631697089273467.post-32722084688678606462007-10-02T23:24:00.000-05:002007-10-02T23:24:00.000-05:00Thanks, Larry.
