      <image:title>Blog - Hello from Strong Taxidermy - My partner and I spend most of our weekends birding. Even if we only have an hour to spend over at the LA River, we try our best to get outside and see the birds. She is a much better spotter than I am, so I just wait until she finds the birds so I can point and shoot!</image:title>
