Every once in a while someone shares a new story [about my father in law, Dan Sharkovitz], a new note of thanks, a new anecdote in a magazine, and I am grateful. It is a reminder that Dan’s legacy is still being written by his students.

We talk a lot about Island homes and gardens in this magazine – about properties acquired and improved, and dream houses attained, and which contractors and landscapers aided in the process. We rarely talk about what we’re trying to build, and why.

Hard to find, hard to hook, and hard to land, Atlantic bonito are impossible to forget.

Summer has settled in, the air thick with insects and thickets heavy with fruit, but the birds at my feeder don’t seem to care. Nuthatches, titmice, and catbirds whir and whiz and land unceasingly, enacting an aerial pecking order I can’t pretend to understand. But I do know that the woodpeckers prefer to dine alone, and that the skittish black-capped chickadees find strength not in size but in numbers.
