The Lake Hills City Birds is a series of videos I started back in April of 2021. I posted backyard bird videos for my Grandma Tommie. Due to health reasons, she was not able to get out as much and I figured this was a way to bring the birds to her. She loved nature. She passed away in October of 2021. I continued my Monday episodes of The Lake Hills City Birds on my YouTube channel. I almost stopped because I cried every time I made a new video. I decided to continue with it. It helped with the grieving process. I post videos on YouTube but I have lots of photos also. So, I am going to try to post my photos here with some details about the birds I photograph.
