What I have learned about birds...1. They are psychic, or have telepathic abilities (that is yet to be determined)
2. They love to torment me 3. They really object to having their photo taken. While I have been suspecting for a while now that there was some conspiracy working against me among the world of my mischievous feathered friends I think today it has been finally confirmed that not only are they in an active pursuit to taunt me, but they also must posses some supernatural ability to so effectively put their plans into operation.
My suspicions that something was afoot were first raised when I was out taking my walk, upon a day on which I quite naturally decided to leave my camera behind, and there within the park I cut through perched upon one of the branches of a tree, which was only but a few feet away from me, was a hawk, whom appeared quite unphased by my appearance and did not in the least stir as I walked by.
Naturally, the next day I brought my trusty camera with me, and do you think there was hide or hair of that hawk anywhere around? Of course not, and ever since, they seemed to have developed the rather convenient way of not being present when I just so happen to be prepared.
Now recently for about week I have been mocked by this great white egret. He has taken to enjoying hanging around the creek upon which I walk by, and the first day I came upon him, perched upon a tree branch I as I prepared to take his picture he naturally takes off in flight.
The suspicious thing about this is the fact, that when I go out without my camera and see him, I will walk right by where he happens to be standing or perched, and he won't budge an inch. Then the other day I saw him again down by the creek, and the creek down this slope and I was at the top of the slope and I got my camera up and read, had the bird in the view of my camera, and at the exact moment that I was bout to hit the button to snap the photo all of the sudden he takes flight.
So today I was getting ready to go out and contemplated taking my camera, but I just had it the other day, and it was pretty foggy out, so I decided to leave it behind. And low and behold I happen upon my egret again perched within a tree, and this time he was like even closer then he usually is when I attempt to take his picture, and I was standing across from where he was in the tree, and he was just chilling there. I thought I would try and trick him to see what would happen, and I brought up my hands, as if I had my camera, and mimed taking a photo of the bird, and guess what? He did not budge an inch.
Well then later as I continue on my way, I am walking along this trail which cuts through the foot hills when up ahead perched upon a fence post, perhaps only a few feet away from me is this big beautiful hawk. I stop and stand right in front of him, and he is not in the least bit phased he just looks me.
You think that would ever happen if I had my camera with me? No, of course not.

 Quote of the Week: The war against death, dear Harry, is always a beautiful, noble, and wonderful, and glorious thing, and so, it follows, is the war against war. But it is always hopeless and quixotic too. ~Heramnn Hesse
