Birds are among the most popular and beloved of wild animals. Sure, moose are majestic. Deer are popular to different groups of people for different reasons. Some people find foxes beautiful (or at least the kits cute). Some love skunks one of our. ....
This spring has been a very strange one for our bird migration. As you know, we had one of the easiest winters on record with only 14 inches of snow the entire season here in Bismarck, and temps quite balmy outside of a brisk week in February. The winter was very easy on our resident wildlife. If I remember right, Lake Sakakawea had a record-late freeze date somewhere around the fourth weekend of January, which was days beyond the old record. Bird migrations vary widely depending on the birds and their needs. Those species reliant on water swoop in as soon as the thaw occurs on the Plains. By mid-March most years some mallards, pintails and green-winged teal are present, with the diving ducks following suit as the bigger waters open. These birds seem to linger just as far south as they have to before climbing back north when the thawing ice fields open. ....
Photo by Daniele Levis Pelusi THE PURPOSE OF THE TRIP was to see my mother’s father one last time, but on the way in we stopped for a day in Mumbai to stretch our legs. I’d drawn a whole map for myself on the plane and now was following my dotted line through various markets and bakeries, culminating in a visit to the CSMVS, the city’s largest art museum.

I don’t speak Hindi, but I thought, if I kept my mouth shut, I might look the part I had no American flags on my shirt, anyway but when I got to the front and wordlessly held out my several dozen rupees, the guard saw right through me and pointed to the tourist rate on the sign. Too embarrassed to explain myself or double dow ....
I IF I CAN BE CALLED A BIRD-WATCHER, my spark was a pair of burrowing owls, painted on the narrow storefront gate of a shuttered real estate business on 145th Street in Harlem that brokers single-room occupancy housing for two hundred dollars a week. I spotted them after ice-skating with one of my kids at the rink in the shadow of towering smokestacks at Riverbank State Park. The park is a concession to the community for the massive wastewater sewage plant hidden beneath it. It was midway through the Trump years: January, but not cold like Januaries when I was little, not cold enough to see your breath. It wasn’t snowing, and it wasn’t going to snow. The owls watched me quizzically with their heads cocked, their long skinny legs perched on the colored bands of a psychedelic rainbow that seemed to lead off that gray street into another, more magical realm. ....
