God gives every bird its food, but He does not throw it into its nest.
J. G. Holland

He carried his childhood like a hurt warm bird held to his middle-aged breast.
Herbert Gold

Building Bird Houses

It's summer time, hear the birds sing, aren't they lovely. A great summer project is building bird houses for your favorite friends. Grab your children or grandchildren and make it a fun, family project.

It's winter time, it is colder than bear snot--restless, bored and ready to do something interesting. But, what to do? Get ready for some new spring time activities by building some very cool bird houses.

Below are plans to build a bird house out of a gord, a mid-century bird house, nesting houses, a bluebird habitat, and Bob Olson's series on building unique bird houses. Grab the wife, the kids, the dog, or spend some creative quiet time with yourself.

We'd love to see photographs of your bird houses. We will publish them in Bird Lover's. Email you bird house pictures here (LivingLifeBoomerStyle@gmail.com). Can't wait to see your feathered friends guest house.

I consider myself to have been the bridge between the shotgun and the binoculars in bird watching. Before I came along, the primary way to observe birds was to shoot them and stuff them.
Roger Tory Peterson

I don't ask for the meaning of the song of a bird or the rising of the sun on a misty morning. There they are, and they are beautiful.
Pete Hamill

I don't, for the record, have a Tweety Bird fetish.
Brian Lamb

I feel akin to the Platypus. An orphan in a family. A swimmer, a recluse. Part bird, part fish, part lizard.
Trevor Dunn

I give bird songs to those who dwell in cities and have never heard them, make rhythms for those who know only military marches or jazz, and paint colors for those who see none.
Olivier Messiaen

I love to swim in the nude and roam around the house in the nude. You're just as free as a bird!
Bettie Page

David Herbert Lawrence

I never wanted to weigh more heavily on a man than a bird.
Coco Chanel

I think I was first awakened to musical exploration by Dizzy Gillespie and Bird. It was through their work that I began to learn about musical structures and the more theoretical aspects of music.
John Coltrane

I think we consider too much the good luck of the early bird and not enough the bad luck of the early worm.
Franklin D. Roosevelt

I want the people of New Jersey to jump off a cliff like Kurt Vonnegut so I can show them how to fly. This way, nobody needs to grow any wings, which would be impossible anyway because we're humans and not some kind of bird.
Richie Sambora

I wanted to know the name of every stone and flower and insect and bird and beast. I wanted to know where it got its color, where it got its life - but there was no one to tell me.
George Washington Carver
