The Life of Birds

David Attenborough is awesome. The Life Of Birds, is an awesome show. In episode 6 he shows how a bunch of birds dive bomb and poop on a raven to chase it away and get it off the idea of eating their young chicks.

I fell in love with birding when I was in Ecuador. I went to a cloud forest bird refuge, and saw the most amazing birds in the world, and met a lot of interesting birders.

Back in Jamaica Estates, the most exciting thing I would see is a cardinal. In Chicago, I just saw LGBs, little grey birds.

Hiking in nature, you might see a bird. Just another amazing slice of the rich world in nature. I was showing my son the drawing of Audubon the other day. I'm trying to educate him about the world of art, because of his own creative aspirations.
