Early bird puffs on first cigarette, with a T.

2014 05 03 bird puffs cigarette with T ipg sig

…….whilst waiting for sun hiding in the hedge.
Not a good start really. It was too early, and camera battery soon died anyway.
Returned for other camera, then caught geese sounds and the quarter bell ( that was a first).
Counted 30 high up planes to Heathrow.Trails awesome.Wide sky.
It was far too cold out there. Sun, purple to soft pale pink but I froze. Was back by 6.
Took about an hour or two to thaw. Delighted with some of the shots… but here’s the pigeon!

Meet the Bird who can prophecy weather!

2014 04 22 the bird who prophecys rain jpg sig

This is the Bird who sits on top of the pole
To hide from the cat
Who climbs up and down trees
In the garden below

This is the cat who tries to sit near the Bird
In this nice sunny place
At the top of the pole because Bird can prophecy weather

This is the Bird who
ONLY sits on the pole
When the sun  makes  a promise to shine.
But Bird is likely to make a very fast move
When the door of Jack’s house
Opens up
Very fast
To a flying bucket of water

Bird calls it a change in the weather
