The Passenger Pigeon
Once upon a time, North America was home to an estimated five to eight billion passenger pigeons. They may have been the most numerous bird species in the world. My father was in diapers when the last one died in 1914. I was born in Michigan, where immense flocks had once thrived, prior to the invasion of farmers and loggers in the early 1800s. Today, our culture has largely forgotten the saga of the passenger pigeons. We still remember the war on bison, which is somehow seen as more heroic and dignified. Lately, some genetic engineers have been talking about resurrecting ... read more

The Music of ForgettingI remember when we first came to this small Mexican island in the Caribbean. The pace of life was very slow and time seemed to spiral, not chug straight ahead. It seemed as if local people far outnumbered visitors, most of whom came for the off-beat rhythm of life. The days floated by as did the people along the narrow streets, in and out of the little cafes and aqua water as if everyone were a sea bird soaring on the up notes and dancing down with the swaying palms. Celestial music filled the air. read more

By sitting still I do not mean the paralysis of dread, like that of a rabbit frozen beneath the dive of a hawk.
