MY GARDEN IS WHERE THE STORIES IN "WORDS IN OUR BEAK" TAKE PLACE

MY GARDEN IS WHERE THE STORIES IN "WORDS IN OUR BEAK" TAKE PLACE

The photographs atop this posting were taken by Joan Budilovsky who is visiting NYC for this Columbus Day holiday. She stopped by my rooftop garden (with her husband and their eleven year old son) yesterday to play a few games of Bird Bingo...*

... and so that I could autograph her copy of Words In Our Beak Volume Two.

I have to take care of something this Columbus Day weekend, dear reader, so there is no posting for either today, tomorrow, or Monday. Therefore, I'll see you on Tuesday, here on Blogger. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy your holiday weekend!

P.S. I credit the image posted above with a blog entry that I saw (in 2011) on French By Design.

Discovery Day

Today many folks in the United States are celebrating Columbus Day, which basically means that schools, post offices and banks are closed. I wish it meant that construction on Columbus Avenue, less than a block from where I live (and have my terrace — roof extension — garden), would cease, because the jack hammer is deafening! But hammer away it is, and the noise is quite distracting to yours truly, even though the sweet house finches are trying to drown it out with their songs as they go about their activities; which mostly include eating, as seen in this image posted above.
