NOTE: 6/20/2008 Chickadees are nesting for the second time this season on Overlook Circle. I put a small infrared camera inside the nest box and captured videos. I'll be adding new videos as interesting things happen.

NOTE: 5/17/2008 The Overlook Circle site has a new feature! I've just added a Stardot Netcam so we can enjoy watching backyard birds and weather from the internet. Images are uploaded every 30 seconds. Check it out and see if you find any interesting birds!

NOTE: 10/1/2007 Good news, Overlook Circle weather fans! The weather station is back in business. I ordered some replacement parts and now we have a new rain gauge and anemometer. Unfortunately being out of commission for the last 1 1/2 months, we missed out on measuring our record rainfall during that time, and the yearly numbers are skewed. The pole is still bent a little, but that would be a lot of work to replace so I can live with that, although it does bug me to look at!

NOTE: 8/11/2007 The weather station has been damaged by the severe storm passing through about 3:00 am. A very large branch fell across the deck and hit the station, causing the rain bucket and some other pieces to come off. Unfortunately this means that no rain data was measured during the storm, as the high wind gusts happened right on the leading edge of the storm. Judging by other local weather stations, we picked up over an inch of rain, which was sorely needed. In the morning I saw that the rain gauge itself is broken, so I'll have to replace it. See photos and details of the damage.
