He had bird books. I hadn't looked at bird books since I was about eight years old, in the big wooden walled dining room of my grandparent's cottage. Only on rainy days, when the birds weren't out anyway, but I'd try to remember what they looked like, so I could spot them tomorrow, when the sun was shining and the animals reappeared. Of course, I forgot what was what, or cared much less than anticipated.

Bird books!
