I’m currently reading a book called The Beak of the Finch. I’m quite enjoying it, even though it deals with a subject I don’t normally read about (evolutionary biology). It also came out in 1994, meaning few book stores would display it near the front. So how did I come to have a copy?

I had a few minutes to kill the other day, and was perusing the stacks when I came across this tale of Peter and Rosemary Grant’s epic adventures in the Galapagos tracking Darwin’s finches. I’ve now spent several pleasant late night hours reading the book on my back porch while listening to the insects and birds all around me. This is the definition of serendipity — happy results that happen by chance.
