I'm Back and Walking!

After being away almost 2 months I am back at my blog and from now on I am going to put my postings on a regular schedule.

In the meantime,  I have been busy with various projects including the promised Story Stick. On the previous post I described the origin and purpose of this storytelling tool and showed possible materials I could use. I am quite pleased with my effort and I am pleased to say that my Talking(Story) Stick is now in use.  Following are pictures.

With my new mobility, I am now leading birdwatching walks again, but with a difference.  I include stories, especially those that are relevant to the location or other feature of the walk.  Generally we pause at mid walk and we have a snack and story break.  So far these stories tend to be true accounts rather than folklore, however, I could see occasions where a folk story would fit. These walks are very popular and our upcoming walk on December 11 is to be at Lambton Woods.
