RE: [Highland Park] No birds to watch

I may be the lucky one. Since I am new to the neighborhood your birds have been kind enough to welcome me. There are 4 cardinal pairs, at least 10-15 finches and only one blue jay - I keep looking for his mate, but still haven't spotted her. Anyway, I first starting feeding them occasionally, but found they sat in my bushes behind my house waiting for my attention. I put out warm dishes of water and now feed them every day. They have become so accustom to me opening the back door, you can hear them getting exciting in anticipation of a treat. My cat sits on the back porch to watch them feed and they don't seem to be bothered by her or my dog. It is truly amazing and I am so touched. I look forward to going into my kitchen just to see if they are out in the back yard. Living on Jackson Street at N. Sheridan Street and loving it. -----Original Message----- From: neighborhood-bounces(a)highlandpark.pgh.pa.us [mailto:neighborhood-bounces@highlandpark.pgh.pa.us]On Behalf Of ozzieink(a)comcast.net Sent: Monday, February 19, 2007 2:05 PM To: neighborhood(a)highlandpark.pgh.pa.us Subject: [Highland Park] No birds to watch Any ornithologists out there? Or a plain old bird-watcher will do. This is the first winter NO birds are coming to my bird feeder. I've checked the feeder and it seems OK. But after a few weeks of no feather friends, I'm wondering if there's something I could do to encourage them back. Any ideas? And is anyone else noticing the same thing? --Puzzled

Dan Miller, at the Center for Integrative Medicine, 580 Aiken Avenue, is a really good chiropractor. My wife and I have been going to him for several years, and he has helped us through some pretty serious back crises. In fact, I just finished a course of 4 adjustments in one week to get my back in shape to go skiing. It has been bothering me for several weeks, but it is almost 100%functional again...

A moving truck owned and operated by "Starck Vans" hit our neighbor's tree, broke two branches that are presently hanging at windshield height, broke a cable wire that was left in the street, and mangled other branches. The event occurred on Winterton Street near Bryant Street. If you have the time, feel free to call them at 800-326-6556, x 2809 to complain about their practice of leaving behind dangerous conditions in our neighborhood. The more the merrier. Maybe they'll come back to remedy the problem. Thanks. More info: Truck number was 426 7813, the truck was also numbered 103 The website listed -- www.starckvan.com

[Highland Park] Free Stuff
by Howard Degenholtz 19 Feb '07

19 Feb '07

I have two bookcases (brown) and two storage units (white) available free for the taking. The bookcases are 48"h x 48"w x12"d, made of particle board with wood-pattern veneer. Originally from Office Depot (or similar store). The white units are 18"h x 48"w x 18"d. I used them to store record albums (remember vinyl?) and other stufff. All 4 pieces are in decent shape so it is a shame to put them out on the curb. Reply by email or call 412.608.7143 . -Howard Callery St.
