In my Taiwan and early Kentucky years, I was a budding birdwatcher. A decade ago, Joe and I really got interested in eastern bluebirds and even built a nesting box behind our town home. Alas, that was many years and several blogs ago. But I still love birds, and when I have an empty nest and attain senior citizenship, I plan to become a birder in earnest. Until then, I've got my kitchen window and Matt Sewell's adorable book, Owls: Our Most Charming Bird.
