Cornell All About Birds

The online Cornell birding site, All About Birds, has a new look and I like it. If you haven't used this Cornell Lab of Ornithology online bird guide, I highly recommend it. All About Birds is loaded with information, it's easy to use and it's free! A bird watcher can spend hours, here. Thank-you, Cornell. Good example of how handy this site can be happened to me, just this morning. One of our employees was very excited about a new bird she saw over the weekend and she described it to me. I knew, immediately, that it was a Green Heron, so we pulled up the Cornell All About Birds website, typed in Green Heron, up came the pic and description, complete with sound and she said, "That's it!" I then used this same great birding resource to show her pics of some of the prettier birds I saw over the weekend, including a Scarlet Tanager, Indigo Bunting and Eastern Bluebird.
