Kristina Mastrocola just wrote a great article in Woman’s World about butterfly gardening and hummingbird gardening, and she quoted me about both topics and mentioned my book THE ART OF HUMMINGBIRD GARDENING. I couldn’t resist going down to the newsstand and picking up a copy of the May 23, 2016 issue. It isn’t every day that you appear in a magazine with a circulation of 1.6 million. I hope it helps to spread the word about gardening for butterflies and hummingbirds.
The article on hummingbird gardening and butterfly gardening featuring my quotes and books THE ART OF HUMMINGBIRD GARDENING and THE ART OF BUTTERFLY GARDENING will appear in Woman’s World magazine on 5/12 with a cover date of 5/23. Kristina Mastrocola is doing the article, and I’m looking forward to reading it.
They are doing an article about hummingbird gardening and butterfly gardening. I had a nice chat today with writer Kristina Mastrocola of Woman’s World and it brought back memories of working on these books. She asked some good questions about how to set up gardens for the hummingbirds and butterflies and we also talked about photography. The article will appear around May 12 and it will be widely available on newsstands. I’m looking forward to it. I was describing to Kristina the wide-brimmed hat I wear to hide me from the hummingbirds, and I decided to send her this photo to show what it’s like. That’s me at my garden in Adamant, VT.
Joy Marzolf at Mass Audubon’s Broadmoor Wildlife Sanctuary made this poster of my books to go along with the framed bird photographs at my exhibition “The Art of Backyard Bird Photography.” It doesn’t get any better than Mass Audubon. The show runs there in Natick, MA until May 31.
The nice folks at Woman’s World magazine asked for a photograph of me pouring sugar water into my hummingbird feeder, so I got out there today and did just that. They also asked for a hummingbird photo as well. The article should be very nice, by Kristina Mastrocola of Woman’s World.
This time one is cropped, the other not. This time the shirt is unbuttoned one button down, showing more of the orange shirt. This time I’m looking away from the camera, instead of right at the camera. Choices, well, when the shirt was buttoned to the top button the day before, I had just forgotten to unbutton the top button. But the look is kind of cool there too. In the end, some folks would say it doesn’t matter. But in this age of images, maybe it does in a subtle way.
