Ah, I see the Cardinal flower on there. :) We bought some starts and within days of putting them into the ground they thrived. It seems like our soil is finally good for something.
JimBob, I hope your bird garden does well in your new home. I think that is great you are already planning ahead like this.

Life list (non ABA)- 211  Latest: Gray Partridge

Coolest: Audubon's Warbler
2013 Year list- 176  (We surpassed last year's end total of 171)

Coolest: Lesser Yellowlegs (This bird was terribly lost during our May snow, we are near no shore for this shorebird)
