The photograph was taken by me, using a 300mm zoom lens, and then I cropped the photo.

The National Yiddish Book Center has an 86-page brochure/catalogue of what they term “The Core Collection of 1000 Great Yiddish Books“, which belong to the Steven Spielberg Digital Yiddish Library.

You can see the entire 86-page collection of “Essential” Yiddish books, here.

The photograph above was taken by me. I was on my deck, and saw this cute bird sitting in the middle of one of my bushes…daydreaming the December day away.
