|  Hello
fellow bird lovers! My name is Larry Jordan.
My wife Brigitte and I have been living
in Northern California for over 30 years
now. We live on 40 acres of rolling hills
with our menagerie of animals ranging from
dogs and cats to goldfish and goats. We
moved out here to get closer to nature and
“get back to the land”.
We
live at an altitude of 1600 feet in zone
7, commonly known as the “Digger Pine
Belt”. The landscape is rolling hills
with lots of oak trees and pines but large
open spaces as well. We have a pair of breeding
red tail hawks on our property and every
year they provide many hours of enjoyment
as we are able to observe them through the
season from breeding to teaching their fledgling(s)
to soar!
We
have been very fortunate to have been able
to observe: Bald Eagles, Cooper’s
Hawks, Red Tailed Hawks, Northern Harrier
Hawks, Ferruginous Hawks, Osprey, American
Kestrels, Turkey Vultures, Roadrunners,
California Quail, Wild Turkeys, Mourning
Doves, Rufous-sided Towhees, Hutton’s
Vireos, Several Warblers, Several Flycatchers,
Several Sparrows, Bewick’s Wrens,
Western Bluebirds, Townsend’s Solitaires,
American Robins, White- breasted Nuthatches,
Red-breasted Nuthatches, Several Finches,
Plain Titmice, Screech Owls, Pygmy Owls,
Burrowing Owls, Great Horned Owls, Barn
Owls, Canada Geese, Snow Geese, Mallard
Ducks, Western Tanagers, Black-headed Gross
Beaks, Lazuli Buntings, Violet -green Swallows,
Tree Swallows, Barn Swallows, Anna’s
Hummingbirds, Rufous Hummingbirds, Northern
Flickers, Acorn Woodpeckers, Black Phoebes,
Scrub Jays, Steller’s Jays, Yellow-billed
Magpies, American Crows, Common Ravens,
Black Capped Chickadees, Mountain Chickadees,
Western Meadowlarks, and Red-winged Blackbirds.
We
have always been in love with the natural
beauty and peace that birds bring into our
lives. We want to share that peace with
everyone in the hope that it will bring
people more in touch with nature and themselves.
We created this website to give you as much
information as possible to be able to attract
birds into your yard and into your life.
Wherever you live there are birds that you
can attract to your living space and many
ways to observe their interactions.
We
hope you enjoy what we have here for you.
Our promise is to have only top quality
information and supplies for you. Your satisfaction
is our primary concern. Everything we offer
is 100% satisfaction guaranteed! If you’re
not happy, we’re not happy. So look
around and be secure in the knowledge that
if it’s not right, we will fix it!
You have my word on that.
Sincerely,
Larry Jordan
