Coastal WildScapes and Little St. Simons Island Present:
An exclusive opportunity for Coastal WildScapes members to spend two nights on Little St. Simons Island. Our special guest will be Susan Cerulean.
Susan is the author of Tracking Desire: A Journey After Swallow-tailed Kites, and the editor of four anthologies of Florida based writings. She is at work on a book about changes coming to north Florida’s barrier island coast entitled Coming to Pass. She has recently completed a second writing residency at Hedgebrook Farm on Whidbey Island. Susan lives in Tallahassee with her husband; together, they enjoy growing most of their vegetables in a community garden.
“My memory is etched with a clear image of how that bird swung into view and hung over me, suspended like an angel, so darkly black and white, with its wide-scissored split of a tail”.
“’Be still for now’, the white head of the swallow-tailed kite appeared to say. ‘Protect what is life affirming, life beginning, without rancor. Hold fast to what is right. Speak truthfully. And place your body over the precious things.”’
In addition, Tim Keyes, a biologist with Georgia Department of Natural Resources (nongame conservation) will discuss coastal bird conservation efforts for swallow-tailed kites and other species of conservation concern.
This will be a memorable time to enjoy all of the activities on Little St. Simons Island. Don’t miss it!
