Greetings
I'm an avid bird watcher, recently moved here to the desert, and trying to find my way around. When I saw your forum name, I thought it would be about birds. I notice you have some nature photography, which I'm also interested in.
I recommend these boards for anyone who likes birds:

Re: Greetings
Hi Terryton and welcome. One of the reasons I called this place The Nest is because I'm a bird lover and avid nature photogapher.
Make yourself at home. Looking forward to some avian and photographic chat with you.

Re: Greetings
I've noticed Say's Phoebes and Inca Doves around my neighborhood. The city parks with ponds and cottonwoods are ideal spots for birding year round.
This is another good forum.

Re: Greetings
Welcome, Terryton.
Being new to an area must open up all sorts of new birdwatching and photography opportunities. How exciting!
I hope to be in a similar situation sometime soonish. Where did you move to Vegas from?

Re: Greetings
At first I thought there wouldn't be too much in the way of bird watching in Nevada, but there's actually quite a lot of interesting species right here in the city, especially very early in the morning. There are several preserves around too. I'm originally from Illinois, but travel a lot for business. Every new area opens up a whole new vista of bird watching opportunities.

Hello, "Terryton."
I also love bird watching. Your profile says you just joined Runboard today, so I was curious to check your recommendations. The second forum you linked to hasn't been active since 2008.

Re: Greetings
Let's not rush to judgement now.
Perhaps Terryton was in a coma for a few years...you know...as a result of a tragic birding accident of some sort. That could account for memory-lapse issues going back a few years.
I'm sure she'll s'plain.
If she's a she, of course.

Re: Greetings
Frank, once a newbie comes on board...with the Introduction and the whole bit...shouldn't their name show up below?
I see PC Fantasy is the latest new member.

Maybe at some point. There's much to catch up with here, y'know -- like the Dumpster.
