A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

@LastVisibleDog: I'm pretty jealous of Left and Gulf Coasters who get to see, like, eight kinds of hummingbirds. Here in the Northeast, we generally only see ruby-throated hummingbirds, which are stunning, glorious marvels nevertheless, but that's it. Hummingbird feeders generally work; keep them clean, use prepared nectar mixtures or sugar water, maintain consistency (if the feeder becomes a reliable food source, that means the buddies will return more reliably). If you have a yard, there are flower varieties that they absolutely love. I can attest that a decent-sized patch of monarda (also called bee balm) will bring all the ruby-throats to the yard.

A parable of milkweed: To do good for monarch butterflies, I stuck hundreds, really thousands, of milkweed seeds in my backyard garden. Whole pods-worth were entombed. Sure enough, milkweed plants popped up. The next year, milkweed plants consumed the entire garden, smothering the other flowers that I'd planted for bees'n'butterflies. Via underground roots, new milkweed plants now emerge far beyond the garden. There's a reason why it's called "milkWEED."

butterfly great to grow large patches of milkweed. If invasive, just rip them up while young. Also, large milkweed plants can be damaged by weather, animals, etc., making a home for the monarch tough.

Just remember folks, we have lost most of the monarch butterfly. In one year we lost close to 80%. I now grow lots of milkweed in my permaculture garden.

Many if not all weeds are edible or have medicinal purposes for people and critters. Grow weeds and mushroom. Some butterfly caterpillars love dill and fennel, like the swallowtail butterfly. The plants get so large the critters do little damage.

It's all about a balanced ecosystem.

@HubigPie, there are some detailed commentaries on Ulysses that I found helped me a lot. They provide an overview and explanation of each chapter, along with overly detailed explanations of all the allusions. The less detailed guides are probably sufficient, if you want to try again.

For his band's lead guitarist, Bob Marley hired Al Anderson, who went to Montclair High School with me and was a star MHS guitarist. Al's still listed as a member of The Original Wailers, a band he fronted with then-member Junior Marvin. As an utterly naive music lover, I recall Al and me cutting school and sitting in my mom's living room as he corrected me that underneath Jimi Hendrix's myriad sound textures, indeed, Hendrix was rooted in the blues. Duh. Chiming in on the bird exchanges, nearly every month the Montclair Bird Club features a notable speaker from New Jersey and beyond. It's Zoom-accessible and open to all.

Superb radio drama style... Ulysses makes Finnegans look digestible Reading aloud helps enormously as they really are oral tradition filtered writings, Joyce was quite the musical lad https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ulysses-james-joyce/id1517040628

Rai is wonderful, bawdy, assertive, lost-love dance music. It's tragic how, decades ago, religious fanatics in Algeria murdered key rai artists for writing and performing music the intolerant deemed vile. Many of the musical stars fled to Paris, where "synth rai" was concocted, a terrific amalgam of "those French!" and "those Algerian expats!" An example, in Algeria, of artists being on the cutting edge of social openness and being targeted for death or exclusion.
