Welcome to my seventy-ninth "segment" of my
Tuesday's Truths series. According to Holiday Insights, today is
National Siblings Day, and they state
: "National Sibling Day is a day to appreciate and cherish your brothers and sisters. Siblings are truly a special blessing that we probably all too often take for granted. They are often our best friends and supporters through life. Another reason to celebrate is that not everyone is lucky enough to have siblings. Their lives are significantly different growing up, and throughout life."
But I confess that I think this holiday is for the birds, so I'm featuring them in this entry. Peanut, a young
cardinal pictured above has three siblings named Frannie, Vincenzo, and Pica-John.
You might recognize Peanut because I have featured her in a prior entries here on Blogger, including one that was
published two weeks ago.
Frannie and her brother, Vincenzo can be seen in the next set of images (respectively).
There are no photos of Pica-John because she hates to have her picture taken and since I feel the same way about having someone take my photo, I never push her to be in a photo.
In any event, in volume one of Cam's book series (pictured below)...
... Cam discusses all of children. In volume two (seen in the next image)...
... Cam shares some photos that her daughter took which feature a family of
Canadian Geese that she saw in nearby
Central Park. Because these pictures illustrate the gosling siblings spending time together, I'm honoring National Siblings Day by sharing Peanut's photos (directly below).
And there you have it, dear reader, a bird's eye view of gosling siblings to warm your heart on this National Siblings Day, but if you have siblings in your life, or know someone who acts like a sibling to you; you may want to get them a copy of Cam's book series.
ADDENDUM FALL 2018:
The digital versions of Volume One within the Words In Our Beak book series that are mentioned in this entry may only remain available for a limited time, but hardcover versions of Volume One, Two and Three can now be found wherever books are sold.
Please click here to go to my blog post that provides details as to where you can get these books. Additionally, I have rendered some images from these books into other formats and they are available via Fine Art America (FAA). Some of my other photographs (Black & White Collection, Kaleidoscopic Images and the famous Mandarin duck who visited NYC) can also be found on my FAA pages.
ADDENDUM SEPTEMBER AND OCTOBER 2021:
When the third volume of the hard-cover version of Words In Our Beak was released, I withdrew from promoting my former versions of Words In Our Beak.
The very first one is an iBook and went into Apple's book store in 2015.
This was followed by an ePub version...
... that is available on Amazon and was also published in 2015.
Its press release can be read by clicking here.
... I've been advised to make mention of my early versions of volume one of Words In Our Beak, they do vary ever so slightly in content from the hard-cover version of volume one.
As of this addendum, I do not intend to create digital or soft-cover versions of Words In Our Beak Volume Two or Words In Our Beak Volume Three.
