“We are human in good part because of the way we affiliate with other organisms. They are the matrix in which the human mind originated and is permanently rooted, and they offer the challenge and freedom innately sought. To the extent that each person can feel like a naturalist, the old excitement of the untrammeled world will be regained.”

—E.O. Wilson

Big fan of female biologists who write books about trees that are basically just love letters to nature. They exude love and hope in a way that appeals to me in the deepest parts of my soul

Crows have always held a special place in my interests because there were a lot near my campus when would walk to class.

I loved the connections made between the birds, family, and environment in this book. It made me take a closer look at how city wildlife behaves in my own neighborhood.

I DID hope for more crow anecdotes of them doing cool things or collecting cool stuff, but that's just because I want to be friends with a crow so badly ヽ⁠(⁠*ﾟ⁠ｰﾟ⁠*⁠)⁠ﾉ

Book Review: Crow Planet - Essential Wisdom from the Urban Wilderness by Lyanda Lynn Haupt

#BookReview - Crow Planet by Lyanda Lynn Haupt A fun, lighthearted intro to urban environmentalism with some cool crow facts thrown into the mix :)

3 out of 5 Stars The Blurb ‘Crow Planet’ richly weaves Haupt’s own ‘crow stories’ as well as scientific and scholarly research and the history and mythology of crows, culminating in a book that is sure to make readers see the world around them in a very different way. My Thoughts? I’ve always been intrigued by crows, so when a friend recommended this book I had to jump right in. Crow Planet…

9 people you'd like to get to know better

tagged by @thatonecotton - thank you! this is so fun, takes me back to the days of prolific asks and tag memes!! i loved reading your answers 💕

Three ships:

vash/meryl (trigun): i watched this for the first time this year (@bbunbbi's excitement about it got me!), both the 98 anime and stampede! going in knowing a friend really likes two characters together is always influential, but there's something really special about these two - vash with his outward personality and inward baggage? meryl who thinks he's one thing and learns he's another and stays with him through thick and thin? good stuff!

kogami/akane (psycho pass): it's been EONS since i last watched this but i've been reminiscing with friends recently! iirc i watched the first two seasons of the anime and the first movie, and the highlight for me was always these two...akane the bright-eyed new inspector, kogami who used to be in her position but is now basically like, a dog on her leash? the way he's like, steady, willing, and calm to be just that? the way akane grows through real experience and is a bit hardened, but still stays herself...they go through a lot side-by-side and i think about them fondly!!

frederick/robin (fire emblem: awakening): lol okay piggy-backing on cotton's answer but!! i could name HEAPS of fire emblem ships i love, but these two have really been on my mind lately! frederick the wary will always have my heart lol but the way, re: robin, he goes from distrust to falling in love...but robin is actually (unknowingly) exactly what he was afraid of at the start?? there's romance there's humour there's tragedy....read cotton's work lol and you'll know what i'm talkin about!!!

First ever ship: hmmm i'm not sure if i remember! oh gosh actually i do recall liking amu/ikuto from shugo chara, which was the first anime i really like, properly watched all the way through when i was younger lol!! anne of green gables is something i grew up with too and anne and gilbert have always been the peak of romance for me!

Last song: the returner by allison russell! heard it on the radio the other day and i keep coming back to it!

Currently reading: i have a few things i'm currently reading - i start a lot of books that i get too busy to finish in the time i have them from the library, but i'm gonna get back to these ones eventually:

rooted by lyanda lynn haupt

a brief history of pakistan by james wynbrandt

women who run with the wolves by clarissa pinkola estés

i've also been chipping away at the novelizations for attack of the clones and revenge of the sith (a re-read!)

Currently watching: i don't really watch shows all that often...gosh...yeah i don't really know! the last thing might've been...like, just the scenes with anakin in them from the ahsoka series lol

Currently consuming: just water atm! i always forget to drink as much as i should!

Currently craving: samyang buldak noodles, always 😭 but lately i've been wanting to go eat some tteokbokki, it's been a while!

tagging @breserker, @ghosttbeef, @tofucasserole, @birdblacksocialclub, @rosemochi, @bbunbbi, @s4wdust, @darksign, @darrthvadr, @varethinsilico, @runicmagitek - (i know that's more than 9...let me live!) no pressure at all! and if anyone else sees this and wants to do it, say i tagged you!

[carolinawrenn]

Thanks for the tag, @tinyarmedtrex! Sorry it took me so long to respond--I've been traveling. I've read some of these so many times I've had to buy a replacement copy because the original fell apart, some I've just read once, but they are all books I think about often. Rules: in a text post, list ten books that have stayed with you in some way. don’t take but a few minutes, and don’t think too hard — they don’t have to be the “right” or “great” works, just the ones that have touched you.

The Last Unicorn, Peter S. Beagle

Persuasion, Jane Austen

An Urban Bestiary: Encountering the Everyday Wild, Lyanda Lynn Haupt

Akata Witch, Nnedi Okorafor

Middlemarch, George Eliot

Six of Crows, Leigh Bardugo

A Wizard of Earthsea, Ursula LeGuin

The Fifth Season, NK Jemisin

Wee Free Men, Terry Pratchett

The Bone Ships, RJ Barker

Tagging @saritasoyyo, @genuineformality, @feelinglikecleopatra, @oneofthewednesdays, @prttyplz, @specializationisforinsects, @bastetsbard, and anyone else who wants to play--I'd love to hear your books.

@wistfulwillowturtle This is the newest crow book I’ve started to read. After finishing the Tony Angell book, I really wanted to see more books on crows, so I found this one on a reading list.

“Crow Planet: Essential Wisdom from the Urban Wilderness” by Lyanda Lynn Haupt

Week 1 Reading Assignments

So, the class actually no longer requires a blog! However, I still want to share my thoughts and lessons and what I'm doing as far as this class and my own spiritual education. These are this week's articles:

A U.S.-Trained Entrepreneur Becomes Voodoo’s Pope

Witches conference: Positive intent, wrong concept

Letter from Africa: How talk of witches stirs emotions in Nigeria

Antiguan Police Arrest Three for Practicing Obeah

How Santeria Brings Hope To The New Yorkers Who Need It Most

When Did Everybody Become a Witch? The reading I did this past summer that was part of my personal spiritual education have been the following:

Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teachings of Plants by Robin Wall Kimmerer

Rooted: Life at the Crossroads of Science, Nature, and Spirit by Lyanda Lynn Haupt

Church of the Wild: How Nature Invites Us Into the Sacred by Victoria Loorz And then the reading we are required to do for this course is

Walking with the Night: The AfroCuban World of Santeria by Raul Canizares.

[thecozypenguin]

🍁🎄November and December🎄🍁 reads

Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver

Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo

Something More by Jackie Khalilieh

Hell Bent by Leigh Bardugo

Rooted by Lyanda Lynn Haupt

On the Tip of my Tongue by Tom Read Wilson

Wrapped up the year with some very enjoyable reads. Demon made me add David to my next year's list. Leigh Bardugo of course does no wrong, and I'm looking forward to the next Alex Stern book. And I have nothing but plaudits and ecomiums for Tom Read Wilson. He can talk etymology to me all day. Such a delight.

By : Lyanda Lynn Haupt

 DESCRIPTION : Deepen your connection to the natural world with this inspiring meditation, "a path to the place where science and spirit meet" (Robin Wall Kimmerer).In Rooted, cutting-edge science supports a truth that poets, artists, mystics, and earth-based cultures across the world have proclaimed over millennia: life on this planet is radically interconnected. Our bodies, thoughts, minds, and spirits are affected by the whole of nature, and they affect this whole in return. In this time of crisis, how can we best live upon our imperiled, beloved earth?Award-winning writer Lyanda Lynn Haupt’s highly personal new book is a brilliant invitation to live with the earth in both simple and profound ways—from walking barefoot in the woods and reimagining our relationship with animals and trees, to examining the very language we use to describe and think about nature. She invokes rootedness as a way of being in concert with the wilderness—and wildness—that sustains humans and all of life.In the

I just started reading Crow Planet by Lyanda Lynn Haupt and while I have barely started it and can’t give any sort of full review I am enjoying it! If anyone else has read it and has thoughts I would love to hear them! <3
