“Just imagine how awful we’d feel,” I told Betty one day, “if we got to the end of our lives and never produced our play. Especially if we really could have. We’d always regret it.” That’s how I pushed Betty to… Read More ›
They aren’t all here yet, but they are on the way. We have the Bluebirds and most of the Juncos have moved on. Not all. There are a few left, but they are migrating north, a few at a time…. Read More ›
When we started putting out suet cakes full of seeds, beef suet, and meal worms, I hoped I’d attract some of the bug-eaters — like the Robins and Bluebirds. The Robins aren’t back yet, but today the Bluebirds arrived. A… Read More ›
Fanaticism and ignorance is forever busy and needs feeding – Clarence Darrow
