March 2021 didn't come in like a roaring lion or a docile lamb, at least in my garden, but it did come in with a visit from a Northern mockingbird which I always appreciate.

Today is NTD (National Teacher's Day) Tuesday's Truths WK 125
Welcome to my one hundred and twenty-fifth segment of Tuesday's Truths which is coinciding with National Teacher's Day (NTD). This unofficial holiday always occurs on a Tuesday during Teacher Appreciation Week, which takes place in the first full week of May.
On this day, I'd like to thank the those who have given me the opportunity to give my presentation (that is based on birds included in my book series, Words In Our Beak) to their students.

| THE WORDS IN OUR BEAK BOOK SERIES |
I spoke at about the topic of wild birds and bullying in our own lives and culture.
Studying the wild birds in NYC and surrounding areas has important implications for understanding the similarities of human behavior and the behaviors of members within the avian community. The topics I covered in my presentation included how birds teach us about the human race in such matters (to name a few) as finding our voice, ways in which we compensate our behaviors to meet our needs, accepting our physical appearances, and how bullying impacts our lives.

For Thursday in the 2019 Octave of Easter: "Fly Away" (An Inspiring Poem)
I went up to The Wild Bird Fund this afternoon and saw a poem about pigeons taped to a partition. It can be seen in the picture atop this entry. Supposedly the poet wrote it when she was only eight years old. Would love to meet her...

News Re: International Academy of NY
I don't want this Friday to pass without announcing that NEXT Friday, October 26, 2018, I will be making a presentation (re some birds who spend time in NYC and what we can learn from their behavior) to some students who attend The International Academy of New York (the school featured in the video atop this entry).
I'm most grateful for this assignment and hope it is as successful as my presentation was at Iona Prepatory School (which I made this past June).
