Backyard and Beyond

Starting out from Brooklyn, an amateur naturalist explores our world.

As John Burroughs said, “The place to observe nature is where you are.”

Monday Monday

I read a lot of science fiction in the 1970s and 1980s. But, damn, has the future turned out to be a disappointment. The dystopians weren’t depressives after all, just clear-eyed.

Yet look at this House Sparrow! Passer domesticus doesn’t want to see us go. Because then what the hell would they do?

Happy Monday, everybody, and once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more!
