Well, here is a photo I took at Bondi last week. I wanted to put it up with the post but somehow I forgot how, or was too tired to try. What a dismal excuse huh? This bird was fantastic. I'm not sure what it is exactly (so illuminate me if you know), It stood on a cliff face spreading its wings, It may have been drying its wings but I liked to imagine it was enjoying the wind and the breathtaking force of the crashing waves and sea foam...whichever, It made me feel something that day.And speaking of feeling something, yesterday I saw a sad sight. Someone hit a bird on the road and it lay on the road and I noticed other birds of its kind gathering around and acting quite hysterical (for birds). They were making lots of noise. I know Indian Myner bird is considered a pest in Australia, but it was just really heart wrenching to see that those birds too could feel loss and despair at the sight of a their deceased and helpless comrade. It also panged to watched as they hopped out of the way after car after kept on passing over the dead bird. Loss is universal...
