About this blog…
“This blog is like a fusion of the Baroque ‘salon’ with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West “saloon” with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven.” – Fr. Z

If you travel internationally, this is a super useful gizmo for your mobile internet data. I use one. If you get one through my link, I get data rewards.

The Feeder Feed: Strigine Edition
I have written of owls before. I once shared a winter encounter I had with a Great Gray, seared into my mind’s eye. I also shared photos of the old “Owl Room”, the guest room, at the legendary Sabine Farm … Continue reading
The Feeder Feed: Indy Edition (with monkey)
For those of you who may wonder why some posts have “The Feeder Feed” in the title, this idiosyncratic practice stems from the time when I had lots of bird feeders across from the windows of my office. I miss … Continue reading
The Feeder Feed: Of cardinals and pigs and … grilling….
A reader asked about “Ray”. “Ray” is every Cardinal (the member of the finch family) who has occasionally appeared on these electronic pages. Since I moved from the Sabine Farm to the Steam Pipe Trunk Distribution Venue, I have not … Continue reading
The Feeder Feed: Cardinal Edition
I no longer have the big and varied feeders that I once did at The Sabine Farm, but I do have a small feeder on the window here at the Steam Pipe Trunk Distribution Venue. As result I don’t have … Continue reading
The Feeder Feed: Attic Black-Figure Edition
I haven’t been able to post feeder updates because … well … because. Here is a variation I use when on the road. Behold an Attic Black-Figure pelike, or wine jar. This probably shows a variation on the theme of … Continue reading
The Feeder Feed: New Arrival Edition
I have had some new arrivals. The hummingbirds have shown up in force. Mr. Ruby-throated Hummer. The Missus. Oooops… no, that’s an Oriole muscling in on the feeder. The Orioles have been rather bold this year, even hanging around pretty … Continue reading
The Feeder Feed: Scruffy and Christological Goldfinch Edition
I haven’t posted much about the birds at the feeder. This, and a recent trip to the Detroit Institute of Art, gives me a chance to use a feature the blog’s software offers and which I have never used. Here … Continue reading
The Feeder Feed: Death and Swallow on the Roof Edition. Wherein Fr. Z rants.
I saw a swallow today, but they move pretty fast and wasn’t able to get a photo. I’ll try again later. The sighting of a swallow at the turn of the time from winter to spring is particularly auspicious. (Get … Continue reading
The Feeder Feed: Singing Bird Pistols
Combining favorite things. This isn’t at the Feeder as much as it is at Christie’s auction block. Singing Bird Pistols. Ingenious. Man can be so clever. They sold for $5.8 million.
The Feeder Feed: subdued by cold edition
The feeder is busy right now, since there has been a cold snap. This year I have Redpolls. This cold fellow is a Junco. They are mostly ground feeders. Here is one sitting in a bush outside my kitchen window. … Continue reading
The Feeder Feed: Slow News Day Edition
It seems to me such a slow news day that I should… I dunno… tell jokes or maybe post a picture of some birds.
The Feeder Feed: New Visitor and Dog Edition
There was a great sun dog which I was able recently to enjoy. Today I saw a lone Common Redpoll! They haven’t been around for a couple years. It is nice to see a new visitor from time to time. … Continue reading
The Feeder Feed: back from the cruise edition
Some shots from the Feeder. The Chickadees were on a cruise, I think. They are back now, and in large numbers. I don’t know how they get those sunflower seeds open, but they do. Still life with flying life. Ray. … Continue reading
The Feeder Feed: Dinosaur edition
I have finally received proof that birds really are modern dinosaurs. A reader sent me this photo.
RADIO SABINA STREAMING – Rosary in Latin and Prayers for Pope Benedict
Z-Cam & Radio Sabina, or “Fr Z TV” is on the air most of the time! Because of a special prayer intention right now I have just entirely Latin chaplets of the Rosary followed by the Litany of Loreto and … Continue reading
