Here are all three of the birds.

The owner of this place must be the president of the More-Money-Than-Brains Club.

This place is just up the road from Greg and Theresa.

Here is another bird picture. Is that a sparrow?

While we are on the subject of birds, this is the museum building at John James Audubon State Park in Henderson, KY. It is just across the river from Evansville. The museum boasts one of the largest collections of Audubon's original art and personal memorabilia and artifacts. It is worth a visit even you aren't into birds. They interpret his life in the context of world events at the time.
