From the bestselling author of The Genius of Birds, the revised and reissued edition of her beloved book of essays describing her forays along the Delaware shore

For three years, Jennifer Ackerman lived in the small coastal town of Lewes, Delaware, in the sort of blue-water, white-sand landscape that draws summer crowds up and down the eastern seaboard. Birds by the Shore is a book about discovering the natural life at the ocean's edge: the habits of shorebirds and seabirds, the movement of sand and water, the wealth of creatures that survive amid storm and surf. Against this landscape's rhythms, Ackerman revisits her own history--her mother's death, her father's illness and her hopes to have children of her own.

This portrait of life at the ocean's edge will be relished by anyone who has walked a beach at sunset, or watched a hawk hover over a winter marsh, and felt part of the natural world. With a quiet passion and friendly, generous intelligence, it explores the way that landscape shapes our thoughts and perceptions and shows that home ground is often where we feel the deepest response to the planet.

72PCS Screw-In Tire Plugs.
Size: 72PCS, Size: 72PCS
This is a kit of 70 tire repair screw-in plugs. There are 30 large plugs, 20 medium plugs, and 20 small plugs, along with a screwdriver and the box. The plugs are reasonable quality and pre-coated with sealant. They are individually sealed in small capsules making them easy to carry and use. They stay clean in their capsules as well. The included screwdriver is better quality than some, but not high quality. To use this kit effectively you're going to need something like needle-nose-pliers to remove the object (nail, etc.) that punctured your tire. After the puncture object is removed you will choose the appropriately sized plug and screw it into the hole to seal the puncture. To do this, you're going to want a decent screwdriver. The one included may get the job done, but since you still need the pliers (or similar tool) available, why not get a good screwdriver as well. It will make the job much easier and more effective. These plugs are great for fixing many types of punctures to your tires. They won't work for all flat repairs, but they are great to have on hand for the most common types. This kit has a lot of plugs that will potentially repair a lot of punctures. With a better screwdriver and a tool to remove whatever punctured your tire this is a solid choice to have in case of a puncture emergency.

Reliable Emergency Tire Repair Kit – Easy and Effective Fix
Size: 72PCS, Size: 72PCS
I’ve used this tire repair kit for punctures, and it worked really well in an emergency situation. It helped me fix a leak quickly without needing to call roadside assistance. The kit is easy to use and comes with everything needed for a basic repair. The instructions are simple, and even without much experience, I was able to get the tire sealed properly. What I like most is how fast it works. It allowed me to get back on the road in a short time and held the air pressure well until I could get a permanent repair done. Overall, this is a very useful kit to keep in the car for unexpected flat tires. It’s practical, affordable, and gives peace of mind when traveling.
