The Trumpet of the Swan is just the best book. Our family read it over and over. Our boys loved Louis! With an almost 5 year old grandchild, it’s time to start the readings of all of EB White’s books again.

Great piece Bob! If you haven't read it already you should check out the first chapter of Bradford Torrey's 1885 "Birds in the Bush," where he also takes a bird walk on Boston Commons and shares his thoughts on house sparrows. Your observations have a thing or two in common!
