The Birds of Troy, Missouri
Here is a brief sampling of
The Birds of Troy, Missouri.

Every photograph on this page
was taken in my backyard, on
the western edge of Troy.

It is amazing the number of birds
that visit us, it seems everyday
has a surprise.

More pages and photos are being
added and updated almost  every
week. Check back often.

a full page devoted to that species of bird.

Being a life-long resident of the St. Louis
