You Make My Day

My cheeks are pink, and I am stammering at the mike, the orchestra is starting up and the super model is about to escort me off the stage. Okay, I would like to thank my lovely friend, Loribird, for gifting me with a "You Make My Day Award."




I would also like to add a few folks to the list. These folks never fail to make me feel less alone, teach me something, bring a smile to my face:

Susan at Susan Gets Native -- Susan is a riot, she is smart, and a smart a#%!

Tom at Mon@rch's Nature Blog -- What photographs! And he offers painless education!

Liza Lee at The Egret's Nest -- Birdy, crafty, busy and funny.

Laura at Somewhere in New Jersey -- This is one of the most polished blogs. Her writing is always thoughtful and considered.

Mary at Mary's View -- She has made me laugh and cry.

Julie at Julie Zickefoose -- Can I be Julie when I grow up?

John at Prairie Ice -- Another amazing nature journalist.

I need to award three young bloggers, their work is fresh.

Phoebe at this.random.life -- She is so funny and a keen observer.

Helena at Adventures of Bird Girl -- she is going places. Take a look.

Zoey at Zoey's Birding Blog -- What can I say, I love this child.

I read more than these blogs, when I have time. I know I have left off so many interesting reads. Feel free to pass this award on, no hard and fast rules. And enjoy checking out some favorite reads.
