He says so, sure, but I&#39;ve seen photos of just about every type of bird on his stream. (Granted; except for grackles. Still, he says he hates doves and I seem to remember quite a few dove photos.) I&#39;m onto him.<br /><br />I&#39;ll carry on loving birds enough for a whole crowd of people, though. Grackles are hilariously, obnoxiously gorgeous.Kim Hoseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13738377880145008895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7607828889416086008.post-49045419615425446442011-11-26T09:34:07.294-07:002011-11-26T09:34:07.294-07:00I don&#39;t trust people who <i>hate</i> birds.
