A big loss




Although I usually only post about my bird sightings here I felt a need to post something a bit different today. I have not had alot of free time lately as I dealt with the declining health of my best buddy and frequent birding companion, my dog Kody. We had to put him down yesterday which was a very tough thing to do. We saw alot of birds together in our journeys around the area. He will be missed greatly.

  3. Larry, I am so sorry about the loss of your dog! I know from my own experience it's like losing a close member of your family. He was a very handsome creature and by the look in his eyes had immense trust in you. That makes it so hard, that you couldn't do anything more for him.
