First Day of Fall
When is the first day of fall 2023?
The first day of fall is Saturday, September 23, 2023—the same day as the autumn equinox—in the Northern Hemisphere. The date varies slightly year to year, but it is usually September 22 or 23. On rare occasions, it can fall on September 21 or 24.
The first day of fall is the day of the year when the sun crosses the celestial equator moving southward. This day is known as the Autumnal Equinox. The equinox marks the end of warm summer days and the start of longer chilly nights.
Amazing Color
This is the best picture of a Saffron Finch I’ve gotten from Aloha Acres. When you see the body, it looks a lot like the American Goldfinch I see in my backyard, but the yellow is more orange.
Morning Sunbird
This Amethyst Sunbird comes to us from South Africa.
New Zealand Postcard
🤗 An amazing California Quail from a Bird Buddy in New Zealand.
Hawaiian Crowd
The Bird Buddy at Aloha Acres gets crowded. I believe these birds are a Java Sparrow and Saffron Finches.
Cardinals in Hawaii
Cardinals are not native to Hawaii, but three species have been introduced to the islands. Northern Cardinals were first introduced to Hawaii in 1929.
Hawaiian Squabble
Bit of a squabble between some of the birds at Aloha Acres.
Cardinal Landing
Beautiful shots of a Cardinal landing on my Bird Buddy.
Birds of the World
Bird Buddy just launched some very exciting new features! Among them is the ability to get postcards from exotic places and learn about new birds.
I got my first Bird Buddy postcard from Hawaii today! It features a Java Sparrow.
Rockin’
This Cardinal is rockin’ that mohawk today!
Hidden Cat?
Sully thinks he’s hiding in this paper bag.
Remembering Pops
The Inside Scoop was one of Dad’s favorite places. He went there to get coffee and he sat at the end of the bar doing the crossword puzzle.
The owner was a good friend. They brought their ice cream truck to help celebrate his life.
Moravian University
Formerly Moravian College, I’m an alumnus from the Class of 1989.

Soda Flavors?
Raise your hand if you want to try these soda flavors.
I’d try the Kettle Corn, but leave the rest alone.
Allentown Rose Gardens
It was the wrong time of year to see Roses blooming, but it’s still a beautiful place to take a walk.
