The Great Backyard Bird Count BY FRANCINE FULTON
P
eople of all ages are invited to take part in the Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC), a free, fun and easy event open to bird watchers of all ages. As part of the annual program, participants are asked to count birds in their own backyards or any site of their choice during this year’s GBBC, which will take place from Friday, Feb. 18, through Monday, Feb. 21. Participants are asked to watch the birds for 15 minutes or more at least once over the four days and then report their sightings online or on the free eBird mobile app. Complete information and instructions on how to enter data can be found at www.bird count.org by choosing “Participate.” “You can count birds on any of the
days and report it to the website, where you enter the birds you have seen,” explained Carol Majors, a member of the West Chester Bird Club. “It used to be that you count birds at your feeder. Now, you can count birds anywhere.” According to the website, the GBBC was launched in 1998 by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and National Audubon Society as a way for the community to collect data on wild birds and to display results in near real time. The data submitted by the public helps scientists to better understand global bird populations. “There is a database of bird sightings that is maintained by Cornell University, so people all over the world can go out birding anywhere and record their sightings in the database,” said Majors. “(The
data) gives ornithologists research material. They can see where bird (populations) are declining, or they can see trends where they are breeding or migrating to.” Majors is in charge of collecting data from members of the West Chester Bird Club. Founded in 1910, it is one of the oldest continually active bird clubs in the United States. “People assume it’s a Chester County club, (but) anyone can join from any place,” she noted. In addition to taking part in various bird counts, club members participate in field trips. Every Thursday, members can be found at Exton Park, 800 E. Swedesford Road, taking part in a bird walk from 8:30 to 10:30 a.m. The walks are sponsored by the Friends of Exton Park.
Each walk at the park is led by a group leader who guides attendees as they search for birds. “You never know what you will see. A lot of experienced birders like to go out because they might see something that is rare,” Majors said, noting that a snowy owl was recently spotted in Lancaster. “A snowy owl lives (farther north) and sometimes they come down in the winter when there isn’t enough food where they are.” Members of the club, who pay a yearly fee, also take part in monthly club meetings, which are currently held via Zoom. A list of programs and field trips can be found at the aforementioned website. For the 2022 GBBC, it is recommended that people practice social distancing while bird watching and wear a mask when birding with others.

thinking), ‘What happens to a gargoyle if their building is torn down?’ ‘What would happen if they lost their jobs and what could they do for a living?’ My husband said it sounded like a good story, which is where the idea came from.”
When author Andrea Mower began writing her first book, “Boss & Hunky: The Adventures of an Out-of-Work Gargoyle,” she intended it to be a chapter book targeted to 8- to 13-yearolds. As it turns out, the story and characters in the book, which covers topics such as friendship, loyalty and hope, actually offer life lessons to adults as well.
She began the book in 2017, and it was published in the fall 2021. “I started to write ‘Boss and Hunky’ as a children’s play. In the beginning of the book there is a lot of dialogue as they sit on top of the building and talk about their fate,” she recalled. “Then, I turned it into a chapter book. As people started reading
“The artist in me wanted to create a fanciful story that children could embrace, and the professional in me wanted to relay a message to which readers of all ages could relate,” Mower said of her new book. Mower, who splits her time between homes in Exton and Brigantine, N.J., works in the human resources field, and she has used lessons learned in the business to create the book. “I always joked around that I was going to write a book and the (people I met) were all going to be in it,” she shared. The story revolves around two gargoyles, Boss and Hunky, who adorn a 200-year-old structure in the fictional
my draft, (I realized) this relates to everyone.” The book is highlighted by questions at the end of each chapter, which encourage readers to discuss concepts that are covered in the dialogue. “People can use it as a workbook,” she said. “People tell me this is a great business tool.” Mower chose animator Robert Bahn to illustrate the book. “Robert and I went to the University of the Arts, but we graduated 31 years apart. I found him on the alumni website,” she said. “We met, he read the book and he got it. He (created) the pictures of the gargoyles
that were in my head.” Currently, Mower is planning a second book in the series, “Boss and Hunky: The Disappearance of the Despondent Doorstop.” “Every book will have a lesson. The lesson in the first book talks about being displaced (and) having to find your way,” she said. “The next one will talk about (what to do) when you are taken for granted.” For more information about the book, visit www.facebook.com/Boss AndHunky or contact Mower at thehrgoddess@ comcast.net.

A wealthy aristocrat acquires Hunky, but because Boss has a broken ear, he is scheduled to be sent to the grinder. After four seasons and a series of incidences and mishaps, the friends are reunited with
the help of Don, one of their favorite pigeons. “I was actually in Brigantine on the beach and my husband, Tim, and I saw this art deco (building) that used to be the Brigantine Inn. I thought there should be gargoyles on the building,” said Mower. “(I began

Dawkins is a former American football safety who played 16 seasons in the NFL, primarily with the Philadelphia Eagles. Often the underdog and challenged by mental health struggles early in his career, Dawkins could have easily gone astray. Instead, the guiding presence of his family, friends and faith served as a constant beacon of light along his path to becoming one of the most feared competitors in the NFL and a member of the NFL Hall of Fame.

Surviving Everyday Life Together February is the month when Valentine’s Day is celebrated. This often means a dinner out for couples or maybe an exchange of flowers or candy. But while Valentine’s Day is what Hallmark movies and greeting cards are made of, the holiday should really be about how important it is to have loved ones in our lives. For both couples and singles alike, it is necessary to have a support network of both friends and family members. They make the happy times even better and the difficult times easier. One of my favorite reality shows that was on a few years ago was “Survivorman” with Les Stroud. As part of the show’s premise, Les
was dropped off in the middle of nowhere and asked to survive for a week with no equipment or supplies, except maybe a pocketknife. Since he did all the filming on his own, he was not even accompanied by a cameraman. His only “friend” was his harmonica, which he played at night to pass the time. While we are not asked to build our own shelter, hunt for food or start a fire, everyday life brings many obstacles to overcome. While not debilitating or life-threatening, these minor inconveniences make life just a little bit more challenging. On a typical week, any one of these scenarios can happen: our computer deletes a file, which is irretrievable; packages don’t arrive in

The internet goes out and we spend our day off stuck in the house waiting for the technician because the only window of time the cable company can give you is between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. And why is that when we are late for an appointment, we get behind the slowest driver on the road and we silently pray in our cars that he or she will turn off at the next intersection? And if they do make a turn, it’s usually without using their turn signal. We are dead tired

from a long day of work, but when we get to bed, sleep eludes us. It snows, but not enough to close school or miss work, but just enough to make driving treacherous. The road we use to get to and from everywhere includes a bridge that is now under construction; completion date - a year from now. However, even though there are bumps in the road, we find solace in our homes and with our friends and family. So this Valentine’s Day, thank the people in your life who mean something to you, whether it be a significant other, a relative, a co-worker or a friend. Let them know that you cannot navigate all of life’s obstacles without their help. And that because of them, there’s no reason to learn how to play the harmonica.
