The two essays on archeological digs in Surfacing by Kathleen Jamie were most interesting. This is a beautifully written book touching on nature, time, people, and traditions. I listened to the audiobook during #20in4
The trees all around....
Green ferns in the groin of an oak. Green moss cloaking a stone. Voice of a crow. Voice of a chiding wren. A smirr of rain too soft to possess a voice. Voice of the shrew, the black slug. Voice of the forest... Did you hear something move out the corner of your eye? The same moth come back? Or another leaf falling? You are not lost, just melodramatic. The path is at your feet. see? Now carry on.
