What’s it all about? And why would anyone want to read it? Well, let me try to explain without losing your interest too quickly. Basically, it’s all about me. Shameless self-promotion: of my writing, of my novels: Where Are the Cocoa Puffs? and Reis's Pieces, of my amazing ability to come up with clever captions on photos of my travels . . . And also, a blatant representation of my stupidity when it comes to spelling, editing, and computer-type stuff.


My debut novel: Where are the Cocoa Puffs?: A Family's Journey Through Bipolar Disorder was released in September of 2010. My second novel: Reis's Pieces: Love, Loss, and Schizophrenia, was released May, 2012!

The Birds

Although I do not, by any sense of the term, consider myself a “birder”, when you're in places such as Belize or kayaking in a calm beautiful lagoon in Mexico (zoekayaktours@gmail.com -- great tour, if you're in Ixtapa), the birds shove their beauty in your face and you can not help but to be awed. Here are few examples of the beauty and wonderment birds add to the world:




Roseate Spoonbill












Great Egret





Anhinga










Collared Aracari
















Northern Jacana























Chicken








Immature Great Blue Heron














Red-lored Parrot

















Black-necked Stilt






















Willet

    OMG!!! That CHICKEN was extraordinary!! I've never seen anything like it!!! Are they indigenous to Belize??
    Kidding...seeing him in the midst of all those other beautiful birds was pretty funny, tho.
    Don't know much about bird species, but I really, really love them. Especially my parakeet babies...
    Hope you're having a blast and enjoying the warm weather...better stay for a while.
