this old Lady one day was watching me save a young sparrow
that fell out of a nest.....
she said " it's only a sparrow"
indicating that she thought it was of little value

i paused thinking of my lessons learned
and went into a deep form of meditation for a few moments
time slowed down to about 1 tenth speed....
i replied quite slowly.... in a Shaman's tone
looking deeply into her in eyes .....

"All life is precious and None can be replaced "
and then walked away

Birds do that chit usually after eating cannabis plants in a nearby garden. It's natural. The bird is not stupid. It's just has the munchies and probably sees some snacks through the window.

Larry, the bird was doing a "knock, knock" joke....you just never said .."knock, knock...who?"...

You're not a very good sport.

...it finally happened, there are no more secret spots

It's doing its impersonation of a plover: a really annoying bird you can't do anything about.

I am a legend in my own mind!

Rav, if you haven't already you would enjoy reading the book Reverence for Life
By Albert Schwietzer.
