Bird Selections- "MY SYMPHONY"
William Henry Channing was a Unitarian minister who was chaplain to Congress
and friends with Ralph Waldo Emerson. His writings include a biography of
his uncle, William Ellery Channing.
Susan hand lettered the text in three concentric circles, surrounding a
painting of two common yellowthroats (Geothlypis trichas), perching among
common elder (Sambucus canadensis) and common sedge (Carex vulgaris). A
geometric border of common cattail (Typha latifolia) surrounds the text
and painting in shades of green and brown.

Channing wrote an extended version of this text in a letter to Margaret
Fuller in 1841; a version, included in an Arthur Brisbane editorial in the
