A Month Long Editorial, Based on Weather & Photos of a Hawk in Our Birdbath
This is a "month long" editorial that I've updated 3 times now which includes some cool pictures of our resident hawk taking a bath in our birdbath, plus my husband, Jerry, did a video and put it on YouTube. These pictures were taken with my Sony digital camera with a 70-250 macro lens through my husband's office window through the screen, but I think they still turned out really cool.

What a Crazy January & February in Florida!
Here it is almost March & we are still in the low to mid thirties in Florida at night & averaging in the 50's or low 60's during the day! Lots of rain, too, so the ground is waterlogged. Many people have had problems with flooding that they never had before, raising havoc on horse show venues & pastures. Of course it would rain or be really cold for the big Jacksonville Winter Series show jumping events, but at least it was in the Clay County Agricultural Center covered arena.
