This box is in remembrance of our many years of watching our fine feathered friends at our window birdfeeder. We've caught a peek at morning doves, finches, chicadees and blue jay's; At the top of the hill watch for nesting bluebirds in spring and summer. Let me know what you see! Be sure to pay a visit to chocolate and midnight on another trail.
We are recent newcomers to letterboxing and really enjoy the quick finds so we thought we’d try to make a contribution, please, please drop us a note and let me know if there are any problems with this or any other box we place!...Enjoy!
