Dear Sherry......N's are very Nice. Full of things I can relate to.....things to Nourish and things to Nurture.

I drink Nettle tea. I have a serious allergy to Nettles. If you drink a weak solution of the tea, I am told that you can build up resistance. I am hoping this will work eventually.....I have many nettles in my garden for the butterflies, so have to take great care......

You've gone all out here and it was wonderful to see all your ideas about the letter N. Where are those HUGE nests? Quite intriguing! And those books look really neat! :D

It is interesting how that bird was swallowed by the night. Interestingly, someone also posted something yesterday about birds singing in the dark and that always reminded me of my experiences when this actually would happen.

To find joy enough to sing one's song in the night while most of the world is asleep.

What a great and very creative assortment of N's.
Thank you very much for the kind words that you left on my blog.

Rose said...

Another creative post, Sherry! I can see the influence of your visit to the Native American mounds.

I have been soaking up some of Nature's sunshine the past few days in the garden, and consequently had No time to do an ABC post this week:)

Rose said...

Oops, forgot to ask about the second photo of the nests--is this a sculpture or some type of artwork somewhere?

Nukke said...

WOW that was interesting !!!!!

Do you want to learn some Finnish ?

Tumblewords: said...

N's of note! The huge nests are fascinating while the noise maker exudes mystery and energy. All novel N's, for sure!

You've featured one of my heros in your post this week - I've been reading Gerald Durrell's books since I was a child and he was a big influence on my interest in wildlife and conservation. The zoo he founded is a fabulous place to visit - it's doing wonderful work conserving rare breeds and re-introducing them to the wild - and it doesn't feel much like a zoo at all, the animals have so much space and freedom.

The natural cures book looks interesting too!

Chrissie said...

Interesting N's Sherry. I am so pleased that you have Gerald Durrell! I visited his zoo years ago on Jersey too. I'm not really keen on zoos but I remember the space and the conservation work.

Roger Owen Green said...

you don't see those nickels as often as I did as a kid. of course that was 45 years ago...

marmee said...
