DAY 14: Birdie love

BETHESDA, MD | MARCH 23, 2010 - Just back from the morning run, coffee on, Adrienne came up into my sister's kitchen. I had the French doors slid open to the deck so all the pretty bird calls came in.
"Two cardinals," I said. See them, the manbird red in the tree and the womanbird dusky tan below on the fencepost.
Adrienne did.
The manbird called again and flew from the pine past the porch between the houses.
"She'll follow I bet," I said. And the womanbird did.
We kissed.
"Birdie love," Adrienne said.
