The New Liberties Birder

I have changed the name of this blog. I now live, since August of 2019 in the New Liberties section of Central Philadelphia. And the truth is that I have not pursued much serious birding since coming to Philadelphia. But I intend to. I am still a Redemptorist and Roman Catholic missionary priest. I believe that God wants us to love, respect and care for ALL of creation as our Pope Francis says so well in his quite long letter LAUDATO SI which is about care for all of creation

THE MOUNTAIN---A VIMEO VIDEO FROM TEJEIDE SPAIN

This is another truly splendid video which the filmaker, Terje Sorgjerd, made, using some wonderful time lapse photography on the highest mountain in Spain. As he says in his explanation one of his chief goals was to take some high altitude, clear time lapse shots of the Milky Way.

A "FINALLY SPRUNG SPRING"--THE MOUNT

Before my two brothers and I go to Italy this Saturday, I would like to share with you some pictures of my favorite haunts at The Mount. They are the route that I like to follow, entering at the dip in the road after our Northern entrance from 9 W. One goes to the left along what we always called "The Acre Stream"..Then up along the Acre Pond which is our northwestern, rock lined border with the owners of the Apple Bin. There is one picture of the blooming Purple Beech which I have on Google Earth..
