Welcome to Litsy!

I just watched this show on NBC recently. It‘s on Peacock to stream if you are paying for NBC‘s streaming service. If NBC airs this show again then I would recommend watching it. It was narrated by Tom Hanks and I really liked it. The burrowing owls were my favorite. They‘re so cute the way they tilt their heads to the side and the way they go under the ground into their hole and then pop out of the ground where their hole is.

I‘m still reading the tagged book but I found out about this webinar that was hosted on Zoom recently and I registered for it but I didn‘t get to watch it live. It‘s about the ocean and deep sea imaging. The webinar was posted on YouTube. I just watched it and I found it very interesting. If you‘re interested in watching it too, here‘s a link to it: https://www.youtube.com/live/6Xp_zikdUfQ?si=sqIFVRJ8v9VbUU5b

I‘m behind on reviews & discussion but I finished this for April‘s #Naturalitsy #BuddyRead I borrowed an ebook copy from the library & it‘s a quick & interesting book of essays about the Owens Valley & Mohave Desert in California. Written in 1903, it‘s wonderful nature writing & while my version may have suffered for lack of photos, the writing was descriptive enough to make me see it in my mind. While reading & ⬇️

Here‘s how I did on my April #bookspinbingo list. I read the short stories I was supposed to read for #noplacelikeholmes, I read the Agatha Christie book I was supposed to read for #christiescapers. I read an ARC I signed up for from Chasing Books PR and I finally finished my #roll100 book that was picked back in February. I made progress in the #realmofelderlings buddy read and started reading the January book for the #naturalitsy buddy read.

All are welcome to join our discussion thread for #NaturaLitsy April #buddyread 🌞

🏜 Did you enjoy the author's style?
🏜 How did she describe the relationship between humans and landscapes?
🏜 Why did she suggest the desert breeds myths and fables?
🏜 What emotional responses does the desert evoke in the author, or you as a reader?

I finished today, only 1 month behind the #NaturaLitsy crew!
I loved all the cool factoids about insects, and I might even be ready to eat one. It‘s a great reminder that when we destroy our environment we destroy systems that support us all.
