I work at home in a quiet residential neighborhood, and it allows me to engage in something I've done my whole life: hand-taming wild birds. There is a pair of beautiful scrub jays in my back yard, and it didn't take long to get them to come right in the house and take peanuts out of a tub on my desk. I'll soon be ordering some waxworms and working on the hand feeding while working on my laptop on on the back porch.
