Through the kitchen window I did see

Two birds high in the sky

Passing each other

As they went on bye

Flying against the wind

 

Twist and twirl

Round and round

In a game of

"Catch me if you can"

Playing with the wind

 

Wings outstretched

Like two gliders

Stationary they hung

Away they sailed

Riding on the wind

 

They returned

From whence they left

Catch me if you can

The games began again

Playing on the wind

You gave me some delightful imagery with your words Wild Rose. I could picture this scene so clearly. Those birds taking nature as it comes, playful in the wind. We on the ground, moaning about it (lol). We can learn much from mother nature. Have a good week-end.

Thank you Christine - was washing up at the time - Suspended it - didn't go for the camera but they were high and just discernible as Peregrines by they shape as the glided away rain clouds moved in to follow

[Chris Shaw]

Far more interesting my friend than washing up. Have a great week-end.

I had to chase a Peregrine out of the garden last week It had gobbled up all of the food for smaller birds & was sitting in a tree waiting to get some warm live food > We did have one pulling a Blackbird apart one day - video came out blurred from the window it had focused on

[Chris Shaw]

Nature, it can be so cruel. I would have found that so very difficult when the blackbirds is such a giver of song and delight.

Nature has a way of showing us the goodness, joy and happiness of carefree living and enjoy the moment as those dear birds where doing.

[Wild Rose]

It was one of those chance moments _ So far away though and no camera
Normally we only see single birds flying straight
We have watched them "Nest watching" as a duty (LDNP voluntary warden)
