Strange Visitors
One morning, around 5:30 am, I’d just come back inside from letting the chickens out and was heading back to bed, when I happened to glance out the bedroom window and was startled to see these two birds sitting on the roof, peering down into our yard:
Well, that’s new.
They flapped down into the yard and proceeded to spend the entire day there, freaking out the chickens and the cat and just generally being weird. Actually, at some point they both settled down on the deck in front of our sliding door and didn’t budge for a long time.
And then they just disappeared, some time before it got dark, and we have never seen them again. I still wonder where they were going, where they belonged, and if they’re okay. They were beautiful… but I’m glad they didn’t stay.
