A friend (ACC) has sent me a number of books from this series--most recently this one and one other from the series. I find it a comforting series. The Stanton family has a gentleness that is refreshing to behold.

In this book, Ellen Stanton discovers a baby left at the Senior Center.

I suspected what changed Ellen Stanton's mood each year before it was revealed. I also suspected who Moses's mother was before it was revealed. I also suspected how the bird sightings would turn out.

It was nice to learn more about Terza Choi after reading about her in so many of the series novels.… (altro)

I really liked this book in the series, which usually deals with wild birds but this one revolved around a pet parrot and the extended family of the rich lady that owned the parrot. Many things were going on here, and yes a prodigal son was also part of this. The parrot was actually taken by the prodigal but then almost everyone in the family has their hands on the parrot and even some of the inhabitants of Sparrow Island. There was a good bit of Abby and Mary and their family in this book, but we really didn't see any of Hugo, a character that I have always liked. Still, this was a very good enjoyable book with a good story line.… (altro)
