No National Boundaries!!

It seems that Spring has arrived in Johnson City. My tulips are coming up and the robins are back. In honor of the robins I will be sharing a section from my new favorite book, Bird Life (for young people), written by Helmut E. Adler, Ph.D Professor of Psychology, Yeshiva University. Why, you may ask, is a professor of psychology writing a book on bird life specifically for young people? I'm not actually sure but according to Dr. Adler "bird behavior knows no national boundaries" which may be a good way to unite all peoples of the world. If our birds aren't so different maybe, just maybe, we aren't so different after all either... Just something to think about.

i love that we have this book in our house... not that i've cracked it open, but anything that pronounces a love of birds as a means to ignore differences of culture and nationality is good to have around.
