Did a Terradise Christmas Bird Count from my windows – 13 species – about 75 birds – Also during count period – blue jay, great blue heron, Carolina wren.
Had to keep reminding myself that we had already had a wonderful “Christmas Day” – so enjoyed my leisure & at the TV dinner left over from Thanksgiving.
Read “Fumble Rules” that Mary gave me – Safire should be teaching grammar in every school in the land. Finally got through to me on banishing passive voice. (Put the subject, not the object, first)
