Many times Boza and I walk and George the Birdbrain comes along. He defies my ability to get a good picture of him as we walk. But today, I almost caught him sitting on a telephone pole top. Then as he saw me stop to take his picture, he chirped and flew away. He sat above Boza in a tree and by the time I saw him again. He flew away again. Boza watched him the whole time, but would not tell me where George was hiding in the tree… 😉
This is George the Birdbrain; running away…
George is a regular on our walks…
Yesterday morning he followed us up to the bell tower and in a few minutes he had a huge praying mantis and was smashing its head against the ground. Then off he flew to home, with his prize. I have so far seen him with a snake, big worm, frog and now a praying mantis…
I mention George because he has been with us since he was a little baby bird and seems to want to stay in our company. He does what he wants, but when we walk; many times he is there, somewhere in the trees and or power lines. Following us around the Russian Village…
I have good pictures of him when we are in our yard. He is comfortable with me walking around and does not care if I get fairly close. But when out of the yard, he is skittish. Can’t blame him. It is a big world and Boza keeps kitties out of our yard…
I will get that picture of him as we walk. This time I was a split second to slow. So I settled for what I had…
This is part of nature that I tell about here on the blog and I know I am alright in the world, when animals accept me. Animals know about life and are not afraid to be non-politically correct. If they do not like you, they won’t be around you…
Also something that is important; Always listen to nature, for it will save your life at times…
