  • Wandering about

    Bird Droppings February 21, 2011 Wandering about I have been getting my cameras ready for spring.

  • So many are confused by religion

    Bird Droppings February 20, 2011 So many are confused by religion But as I sit here today thinking and wondering about all that is I am recalling last night involved in a blog discussion on religion which was interesting.

  • Thinking about other times

    Bird Droppings February 18, 2011 Thinking about other times “The song that I will sing is an old song, so old that none knows who made it. It has been handed down through generations and was taught to me when I was but a little lad. It is now my own song. It belongs to…

    Bird Droppings February 17, 2011 We are where we need to be I was outside for nearly thirty minutes sitting in the dark watching some smoke waft off of some sage as tree frogs for the first time broke the silence. The ambient temperature must be right I heard them last night as well. There…

    Bird Droppings February 14-15, 2011 Searching for a window I woke up very early today as my dog was barking to go out and I walked out on my back porch only to catch a glimpse of the moon sliding behind the tree line. As I walked out a great three quarter moon was slipping…

  • Listening to stillness

    Bird Droppings February 13, 2011 Listening to stillness I was sitting alone this morning as I do most mornings the ambient temperature is still a bit too cold to hear many early morning sounds down in the bottoms along the stream or towards the field. The air was still saving for a single car leaving…

  • Is there room for politics when people are hurting?

    Bird Droppings February 11, 2011 Is there room for politics when people are hurting? Earlier in the morning as I went out after reading a friends note on acclimating to the cold I was standing outside pondering the day ahead in my shorts and t-shirt and it hit me I was freezing my butt off,…

  • More snow and silence

    Bird Droppings February 10, 2011 More snow and silence “I have never found the companion that was so companionable as solitude.
