Read Bill Sherwonit’s essay, “Into the world with a nudge and a flap” from The Christian Science Monitor.

I am a big fan of chickadees, who’ve been visiting in greater numbers since Iggy hung a chickadee house from one of our evergreens.

I slather peanut butter on my dangling corn cobs, so the chickadees can partake. I’m careful to smear some at the top of the cob — the chickies’ preferred perch.

I love you, my little chickadees!
