Letter From Birdland: March 2020

Birdland Reading Room

The Best of Stillmeadow by Gladys Taber Recommended by Loralea. Stillmeadow is a farm in Connecticut, where writer, Gladys Taber lived until her death in 1980. She wrote about the seasons, the challenges and joys of a country home. She raised Cocker Spaniels and wrote about Stillmeadow beginning in the forties. I feel like Birdland and Stillwater are connected by a thread of similar concerns. Her books are out of print, but I got this one from the library.
The Seasons on Henry's Farm Recommended by our Friend, Susan. This book chronicals a year on an organic diversified farm in Illinois. Lovely and Peaceful (without romanticizing the work invovled).
