the eagle and the snake
If yesterday was a snake day--and it was--today was all about birds. Loading bricks, and lumber yesterday I kept running into these two garter snakes--one at each end of of my carrying--basking in the sun, slithering away from me. Today, while cutting Scotch broom I ran into a small nest of what looked kind of like robin's eggs, only a little bird started scolding me who looked nothing like a robin. I worked as gently around the eggs as possible, but I think I still left them too exposed. Then I saw this turkey vulture land and walk around in the field I was working in--it took a few minutes for it to notice me. Then, after arriving to my paradise home of 40 acres, I sat in a maple tree drinking wine with Emerson, Pete, Rianna and Sam and we watched the chickadees who lived inside the tree feed their young. Definetely a bird day.
