Couch Potato Birding

6:45 am, 30 minutes prior to dawn, found this birding couch potato hard at work. My trailcam will alert me if any mammals visit the feeders in this pre-dawn hour. My HaikuBox (listens and alerts on specific bird song) will alert me if my owls visit and start hooting.

My job … stretch out on the couch in front of the fireplace reading a good novel. The window is 10 feet away should my devices indicate this couch potato needs to move!


However, don’t worry. This sluggard has to rally eventually. I have a volunteer work day scheduled up at Sax-Zim Bog. We will open in early December and need to get ready for you more energetic guests!
