Highway 12, as it takes you from Montana into Idaho, has been the road to some of my greatest adventures during my time here. It also, if you turn off at the visitor’s center just over the Idaho border, takes you to Packer Meadow, a high damp sunlit clearing of some fifty acres, cut by a winding creek.

And so, I went on the American Birding Association Safari to South Africa.

Author Sherrida Woodley thinks deeply about dearly departed birds. Imagining birds is not hard for me to do, especially ones hard to distinguish from their little-noticed cousins lingering around train tracks and grain silos, park benches, and the high perch of church steeples.

All twitchers will experience it at some stage or another. For those that might not fully comprehend, the birding slang-term to “dip” or to “dip out on” a bird is to go looking for a particular species and not find it. That bird can then be referred to as a”dip”, the noun version of the word.
