I love nature and rarely love nature writing, so it is a pleasant surprise to find myself looking forward to Bill Danielson’s column every Monday in the Recorder. I’m not a birder, yet I find his descriptions of bird-watching from his kitchen window to be both educational and delightful. Thank you to Mr. Danielson for reminding me that beauty is always near at hand, if we’re willing to be quiet and wait and see, and thank you to the Recorder for making space for such reflections.
