In the book The One-in-a-Million Boy, the boy fills the bird feeders for 104-year-old Ona Vitkus as part of his Boy Scouts community service. Birds are discussed several times throughout the book, as part of the boy’s listmaking practice and also as a topic for new acquaintances that bridges generations (much like the weather).
Bartlett Public Library will host a presentation on this accessible and fascinating topic, Birds of the White Mountains, by expert David Govatnik on Tuesday, October 17 at 7:00 pm. For more information, call the library at 603-374-2755.
