Elijah’s presence can be positively identified by either the constant humming of Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker Suit or lively strumming on the ukulele, usually, but not always, accompanied by lyrics to various folk songs, belted out an alarming decibel.

He can identify every bird that comes to our feeders, and tell you exactly what each likes best.

Elijah has a great love of all things paper. He creates beautiful drawings and amazingly intricate paper snow-flakes. A trail of paper scraps follows him where ever he goes.

He’s convinced that there is a baby hedgehog living with “Daddy red-squirrel’s baby” in the wood pile behind our house and they have adventures together.
His current interests include making himself very, very dizzy.
