Birds are Cool
I heard a noise outside my window the other day that sounded like a puppy crying, so I ran to check on my dog to see if he was okay. I found him sprawled out on the couch sound asleep and happy as can be. Puzzled, I then went outside to investigate and soon heard the same noise except this time it was even louder. Since I live by a lot of coyotes I thought maybe a new pup was in distress. As I stood there listening, I realized the noise was not coming from ground level, it was coming from above. There, high in the tree was a bird with his mouth wide open making that painful sound. It wasn’t like the melancholy wail of a Mourning Dove, it actually sounded like a puppy weeping.
The crying bird, wailing away.
I pulled out my camera and proceeded to take shots of this interesting bird and it made me think, “birds are cool!”
I remembered when I went to the Living Discovery Center with all of its rescued animals and I found that the birds intrigued me the most. At this center, they had many different types of birds including the majestic eagle, scary looking vultures, owls, falcons, and dozens more.
