Thanks for sharing! Will tune in.

Take care. Can you hear the doop-op from our apt.?

I'd have to turn down my Doo Wop in order to hear yours and the birds in my back yard like it too much to do that. Turn yours up. I was out there this morning putting up two nesting boxes for Eastern Bluebirds. As I left after the first one was done to do the second I heard one, turned to look and a female bluebird was already at the opening looking over her new residence.

Wow! I think that it is wonderful that you are making a home for the Eastern Bluebirds and enjoying their company! The lady bird must be delighted and beautiful.

It is still chilly here so we haven't had any borders singing outside our bedroom window.

Isn't doo-wop great and a fabulous way to relax during these uncertain times? Good music is good for the mind and body!

I thank my elder cousins and uncle for introducing me to it as a kid.

Love the Duprees, The Brooklyn Bridge, The Platters, Ronnie Spector, Dion ( my uncle knew of them via Belmont Ave as he didn't live far at that time) The Del Vikings ...

How about you?

After I bought this property I added some features and had it certified by the National Wildlife Federation as a bird habitat. I have nesting boxes all over, a pond, about 18 feeders, and natural food in the form of plants and berries, so I attract all kinds of birds, including woodpeckers, hawks and owls. I'm not too far from a National Wildlife Refuge and get hundreds of bird flocks during spring and fall migration to stop and visit for a meal. It keeps me busy.

As far as favorite Doo-Wop groups, all that you mentioned plus, Sonny Til and the Orioles, The Earls, The Channels, Chantels, The Cadillacs, The Spaniels, Penguins and hundreds more.
