February 23, 2023: to this book --
The Rise and Reign of the Mammals: A New History, From the Shadow of the Dinosaurs to US, Steve Brusatte, c. 2022.
Later, 4:11 p.m. CT: after a few hours poolside and an hour on the treadmill, after picking up Sophia at the bus stop, I came home to relax on the second balcony. One balcony over a pair of red-breasted finches are perched on the railing. It looks like it is time to buy some bird feed for finches.

Several books to keep reading.
My "winter-reading" program. Thirteen books currently on the list, but I've completed several, and reading these right now:
- Silent Spring Revolution: John F. Kennedy, Rachel Carson, Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, and The Great Environmental Awakening, Douglas Brinkley, 2022.
- California: America's High-Stakes Experiment, Peter Schrag, c. 2006.
- The Book of Eels, Our Enduring Fascination with the Most Mysterious Creature in the Natural World, Patrick Svensson, c. 2020.
- The Rise and Reign of the Mammals: A New History, From the Shadow of the Dinosaurs to US, Steve Brusatte, c. 2022.
The one in which I'm most interested but will take a lot of concentration, so will have to wait for the right "moment":
- The Mind of a Bee, Lars Chittka, c. 2022. Princeton University Press. A scientific treatise.
I completed "my new money" allotment / investing for the month of February. For the next round, I have to wait for the first week in March.
