Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

All the bird talk recently has had me thinking about bird dvds.

I found So Many Feathers at the library, and it is very well done.

It is 60 minutes, divided into 2 sections. You can turn the narrator on or off. The name of each bird appears on the screen.
There is background music.

It is very colorful and moves at a quick enough pace from bird to bird. I liked being able to see the birds as they sang- that really puts the song with a face, so to speak. There is a nice bit on hummingbirds showing a few I'd never seen before: the broad bill and the broad tail hummingbirds.

Lots of shots of mom and dad feeding the babies. The photography is just beautiful, and there are some funny parts with classical music.

Overall, a big hit at my house. My bird loving ds especially loved it.
Good for all ages.... nothing like bird watching from your couch
