One measure of achieving some degree of fame is being mentioned in the New York Times Sunday Crossword Puzzle.
Today, as I worked my way to the bottom of the Sunday puzzle, I came to 112 Across. The clue was “Obervation of cardinals”. My initial thought process jumped to the Catholic Church, the Vatican or something along that line.
The answer turned out to be B-I-R-D-I-N-G.
Not Birdwatching or little old ladies in tennis shoes, Birding.
Today I was more pleased to be a birder than to having finished the puzzle
