March's Books

I try to read every evening before I go to sleep.
This journey makes for nice dreams.
I love the study of phenology.

This is a great book.
A zip-zap-zip guide to identifying
plants.

I have checked this book out of the library so many times
it is time for me to buy my own copy.

I love the history and folklore
of plants.

remember to save pods as the seasons advance.


I finally bought this field guide.

March is almost over.
April showers may bring me afternoons to read.
I hope so.
