  4. I am having blogging problems, so haven't been around much (and cross when I do get here), but I have to comment on this last print!! There are several layers to it, and I find it really intriguing!!
    I am so familiar with the original settlers of North America, and I am finding the differences between them and the Aborigines of Australia fascinating!!

thanks for visiting Snap Happy Birding, and for leaving a comment; I can still see them. Now both my blogs are resting in idle mode. It was time to give other things priority, even though I miss my regular blogging and the feedback that came my way over the years. Take care.
