As soon as we entered Ashbridge’s Park this morning, we were besieged by about half a dozen chickadees and two red-breasted nuthatches. I brought along a little sack of peanuts and shelled sunflower seeds for the occasion.

Miles note: I got several e-mails about my misidentification of the originators of the “mockingbird” song.
Hi Miles,
Carly Simon & James Taylor do a fine job, but no one does it like the originals: 😊
NATURE POETRY
The world stands out on either side
No wider than the heart is wide;
Above the world is stretched the sky—
No higher than the soul is high. – Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)
Miles Hearn
Loved the Chickadee pictures; nice to smile first thing in the morning.
