I'm sure someone will come along and help you post a picture - we'd love to say 'hi'! I agree that having eye surgery can re-define life as one knows it. I had cataracts in both eyes, wore glasses since 4th grade, had the cataracts removed and now have great vision. I don't see things up close well, but my distance vision has been perfect since I had the surgery.

Welcome back Rosemeadow! I too used to read this forum avidly a few years ago but then it seemed to practically disappear. I have a question you might have the answer to since you are having such success. I will post it as a separate post.

welcome! As someone who is fairly new to birding as well (but absolutely loving it) my suggestion is to educate yourself. But do it in a fun way. If you're a smart phone user, download the Merlin app. It can help you id pretty much anything and you can hear calls and see multiple photos of your subject in question. I have found that once I know more about a particular species it pulls me in more to birding. Through this self education you can help target species you enjoy to frequent your yard. I'm personally in love with woodpeckers so my yard is littered with feeders to attract them. I now have different suet feeders so make Hairy, Red-bellied and Downy woodpeckers and fairly frequent visitors now. Best advice is to have fun!

I am a survivor of thyroid cancer. Mine was found in 1999 when I was 43 years old. If it is found in time it is very curable. I did have to have one round of radioactive iodine to make sure no trace of cancerous tissue was left in the thyroid area. My thyroid was completely removed and I have to take synthroid medicine to replace it. If Woodsy's thyroid is removed, she will have to take the medication for the rest of her life like I do.
