Also spotted while #birdwatching: Four otters. This was the best pic I could take.
Went birding this morning with @BookishMarginalia . I took a few nice photos of wood storks. #Birdwatching #Birder
pickThis was such a rich and fun book. What a fascinating and important life Mr. Cooper has led. I think he‘s done just about everything and has punctuated those moments with birdsong.
I recommend listening to the audiobook. It is read by the author and uses examples of the bird calls provided by the Cornell Laboratory. #bookspinbingo #doublespin
Only my coworkers came to my program tonight but we had fun and ate so much leftover Halloween candy. I‘m going to start Better Living Through Birding to prepare for more programming! #doublespin #bookspinbingo
pickI thought this was great. O‘Kane is calm cool and collected, even when fighting for birds threatened in her community. She considers herself and “accidental ornithologist” and I may be headed that way myself. Just last night we heard a sound out our window which my Merlin app quickly identified as an Eastern Screech owl! It was the best part of my day. This book is much more focused on her personal life than the title would suggest.
#HaikuADay #HaikuHive
Today‘s haiku is inspired by the spotted dove cooing & singing this morning. (I borrowed this picture). Not native to Hawaii, the spotted dove was introduced from Asia in the 1800s.

The spotted dove coos
A soft plaintive melody
