VINTAGE: An old garden fork that belonged to my grandparents.
QUOTE: For over 30 years whenever I've moved, this is the first thing I've hung on the wall.
NATURE'S OWN: Thanks to Ecobirder I was able to quickly identify this as a Cooper's Hawk.
PEOPLE: Right after the starter's call at the Celebrate Pink 5K road race.
PHOTOGRAPHER'S CHOICE: A Downy Woodpecker buzzed by this afternoon in time to be included.
