For the Birds in Old Salem
While researching "Old Salem by Candlelight", (p. 40 in Southern Living’s December issue) I took a stroll down Church Street in this historic district of North Carolina. Four birds waddled out, crossed the street, and bee-lined to a pile of corn kernels scattered in a front yard.
A local later told me he had heard of a gaggle of vagrant guinea hens inhabiting the neighborhood.
He thought it was an urban legend.
