Later, Mary Lou reads a short piece of text from her book.
As she does so, the listener can hear how each piece tells a little about a bird and gives it a personality.
“Hi, my name is Ossie the Osprey,”she begins.
“I live in rivers, lakes, and coastal waterway.”
She then continues with the next bird.
“Hi, I'm olivia the Owl,”she reads,“I give six deep hoots.”
The book is beautifully illustrated and both easy and interesting for children to read.
The additional advantage with Mary Lou's book is that it is also educational.
It is unusual for a young girl to feel so strongly about a hobby.
Has bird-watching changed Mary Lou at all?
In many ways, it has not changed her in the least; she still plays with her brother and sister and does the things that other children do.
But since she became so involved with birds, something about her is slightly different.
She explains in her own words: “Now I observe more of the world than I did when I was younger.
I feel more attached.
I feel that everything around me is important.
I look at everything I can, because it might be something different that what I think it is.”
This young birdwatcher and author now knows that things are not always what they appear to be.
Each new thing she sees might be something exciting and different.
For this curious young ‘Bird Girl,’everything might just be another chance to learn something new!
