Previously I posted about the Hudson River Illustrations that my in-laws gifted me this Spring. Today it’s all about the birds. Every time I have visited Australia I have marveled at the wildlife, particularly the birds. Having been raised in Upstate NY in the 80’s the most exotic bird we encountered in our backyard was […]
