Hi Myra, I hope you're doing well & splendidly! I came across your blogpost looking up Barbara Yearsley's memoir about Gilbert the crow because I'm currently reading another book about crows where her memoir gets mentioned. however I can't find anything about Barbara's work & I'd really love to read her book. was her memoir never released on a big scale maybe? & that's why I can't really find anything about it? you don't happen to know any means where or how I'd be able to obtain the book for myself? sorry for this random question/comment 16 years after this blogpost, but I'd love to hear back from you. hope you're doing well! kind regards, Giani
