My Fine Feathered Friend
Author: William Grimes
Publisher: North Point Press
ISBN: 1466822139
Category : Pets
Languages : en
Pages : 59
Book Description
Boy Meets Bird. Boy Gets Bird. Boy Loses Bird An Urban Folktale. One day in the dead of winter, New York Times restaurant critic William Grimes looked out the window into his backyard in Queens and saw a chicken, jet black with a crimson comb. Wherever it had come from, it showed no sign of leaving, and it quickly made a place for itself among the society of resident stray cats. Before long, the chicken became the Chicken, and it began to arouse not only Grimes's protective impulses but also his curiosity. He discovered that chickens were domesticated first as fighters, not food; that egg-laying is triggered by exposure to light; that chickens were a fashion statement in Victorian days. He began to probe the mysteries of gallinaceous behavior, learning to distinguish a dust bath from a death dance and how to cater to his guest's eclectic palate. And when the Chicken began to repay his hospitality with five or six custom-laid eggs per week, Grimes had an answer to the age-old conundrum of which came first: the Chicken. And then one day, obeying some bird-brained logic of its own -- or perhaps the victim of fowl play -- the Chicken vanished, leaving Grimes eggless but with this funny, enlightening, and heartwarming tale to tell.

Bird Signs

Publisher:
ISBN: 9781577315438
Category : Pets
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Birds are so common in everyday life that most people take them for granted, viewing them as nothing more than colorful diversions. Bird Signs shows a different and deeper side of our avian friends. The book presents birds as gateways to self-knowledge. According to author G. G. Carbone, birds are symbols that can help us reflect on events, make nurturing decisions, and focus on spiritual growth. Particular birds exemplify characteristics that seekers can find, or search for, in themselves -- examples include the flamingo’s balance and the chickadee’s playfulness. Divided into sections of Bird Traits, Bird Wisdom, Broken Wing, Bird Vision, and Bird Lore, the book contains a wealth of cultural and historical facts, along with guided meditations that incorporate chakras, yoga poses, and visualization. The colorful divination deck contains 52 cards that can be used individually or as daily or weekly card spreads.

Unlikely friends among the variety of birds and Bird Lady, together they would settle in to wait and walkabout, following Bird Lady to enjoy all that came each evening.

Treats to eat and treats of fun and frolicking for all who flew in or made the surrounding area their home, this lovely spot was lush with green grasses and lots of aquatic plants for their nourishment through their stay. For at least an hour after the treats were scattered at designated spots, the geese, ducks, herons, ibis (and a turtle too) were playful with each other. Rivalry would appear between goose families and even among a goose and a duck. You'll come to enjoy not only the nightly fun but the nightly ritual of departing. This story is not only of pleasures among feathered friends but also about surprising reactions between various birds and adversity that strikes a few members of this lovely feathered community of friends. Join them and learn what friendship between a human and birds can bring forth to everyone--friends that are always welcome. “insert image”
