reds nesting




Yet, another sign of spring. There's nesting going on. Great horned owls are the first, soon followed by other birds of prey.

Tommy Greene sent me photos of a red-shouldered hawk nesting near his home in Fountain City not very far from the nature center on the north side of town.

And if you notice, there's green in the nest. Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Hello Mr. Bales! I am the director of the Madisonville Public Library and heard about your new book talk and signing at the Art Circle Library in Crossville. The post said that you were interested in coming to other libraries. I contacted our local Gardening Club and they are very interested in coming to hear you speak. Could you please call us if you are interested? Our Assistant DIrector, Anne Rose, can work out the schedule with you, so please ask for her when you call. Thank you! Kim Hicks
