Enjoying our cottage even when it’s 17 degrees outside. Filled the feeders and within 5 minutes I’ve seen blue jays, crows, titmice, cardinals, chickadees, nuthatches, and starlings. ❤️ 🐦

Thanks, Stacey. Funnily enough, when I posted this, I thought, “Stacey would hate this book!” 🤣

I’ve been sick and unable to read this week, so Zen Birds by Vanessa Sorensen is just the thing to nudge my brain back into reading. #bookaday

Plans changed, so today I have time in the car to read Parachute Kids by Betty C Tang. It’s a sweet, funny, and informative book that taught me a lot. #bookaday

What a treasure! I picked up a signed copy Now Is a Moveable Feast by Anne Hartigan when I was in Dublin. Then the bookseller told me it came from poet Paul Durcan’s estate. It’s amazing! #bookaday
