In the previous period I wrote mostly book reviews (but of some really great books ), yet I cannot remember when the last time was that I wrote of birding itself?

I consider myself fortunate that I learned to love summer birding before I ever knew what the summer doldrums are, if only because summer was the very first season I began birding. Po Tweet is a sour pale ale brewed year-round with local hops from Four Star Farms, just over the border in Northfield, Massachusetts.

While birding this weekend at Mason Farm, I spotted this pair of Gnatcatchers working on their tiny lichen and spiderweb cup in the crook of a broken Black Willow limb. Those birds that seem to serve little other purpose than to distract me with their best warbler impression.
