Woodpeckertarians say it is Downy, not Downey About: Birds of Kentucky: Downey Woodpecker Dad: While I'm sure this bird has been renamed inside the confines of Adair County, as an homage to famous leaders past, in the Sibley's, you will want to look for the dowNY woodpecker, instead. Best, s/Pen Waggener OK, for all the rest of y'all. But inside the borders of Adair County, a lot of us will call it a Downey Peckerwood, or at least a Coybird. We owe that to a past Great Leader. But since Adair County is a nationally respected bird center, CM will yield and change the heading on this picture and the others as found. -Dad 2010-03-11 09:36:12 | Comments | Printable version Events scheduled for today, March 11, 2010 All events are listed in Central Time.

Remembers brother, who died in service, and his stand on flags About: Flag displayed near LBN Parkway needs attention To ColumbiaMagazine.com: I totally agree on this. I lost a brother back in 1981 and he was so against a shredded flag. He was in the Air Force and lost his life doing what he loved best and that was standing strong for his country. So I hope that someone sees the flag and changes it very soon, not for me, but for all the great fallen soldiers who fought for our freedom and the ones that are still fighting. God bless them all. s/Devonna McVay 2010-03-11 09:23:01 | Comments | Printable version

Wonders about status of historic Eubank Springhouse About: UK Landscape Professor at Homeplace on Green River Click on headline for complete letter plus accompanying photos of Eubank Spring To ColumbiaMagazine.com: The photo of the UK professor inspecting a stone fence at the Homeplace on Green River in Taylor County reminded me of Columbia's oldest stone structure, the Springhouse, formerly located at the foot of Jamestown Street.

Enjoys the daily bird photos To ColumbiaMagazine.com: I can't tell you how much I have enjoyed looking at the bird pictures that are submitted every day. It has made me want to get some bird feeders to attract the birds and take some pictures of my own to share. s/Marcia Shuffett Thanks. This area has been blessed with some great bird photographers. We hope you will join them. It's been a lot of fun for most of us. It's a relatively inexpensive hobby, except for those buying $400 purple martin condominiums, but there's no absolute necessity to try to stay up with the Armitages; as we wish more would do. We hope to be able to share your photos in the future. -EW 2010-03-11 01:38:00 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
