Double rainbow--sky bling!

Double rainbow--sky bling!

Just a quick note to explain lack of blogging of late. I'm sprinting toward October 3 deadline to turn in my manuscript for A Sideways Look at Clouds to be published next fall by the fabulous Mountaineers Books in Seattle. Naturally, the clouds have been acting up of late and it's all I can do to keep my eyes on the page. More soon!

Enjoy this song by Peter Horne, "Little Bird, Little Boat, Big Ocean.” Written about the Marbled Murrelet, but the lyrics work well for the Pigeon Guillemot, too.
