Peachfront Speaks

If you're on Twitter and Diaryland, let me know @peachfront, I'll follow you. Hey, I'm just all snoopy like that...anyway, here we're talkin' about birds, travel, and whatever crosses my tiny peachfronted mind! It will also serve as a personal journal of the seasons and my attempt to transform an ordinary suburban southeast Louisiana (western St. Tammany Parish) backyard into a miniature sanctuary for birds, butterflies, and other small creatures. My yard has now recovered from Bill (2003) and Katrina (2005), and I've got some good bird-watching/landscape stone collecting going on -- stay tuned, and maybe I'll post some pictures.

If you only want the Peachfronted Conure coverage, I have moved it to its own diaryland site called PFconure -- link given in the list down below. Go, Peachfronts!

Most diaries are locked these days but if you want me to post your unlocked diary in my profile, feel free to let me know.
