visitor


A Butcher bird visited me early one morning this week.
He/she looked through the window for 10 minutes.
I always feel as if it's a message from some other realm,
when a bird or small animal does that.
I really like them, they have a joyous song,
& are uncanny in their ability to catch food while flying,
when not hungry they park it in the fork of a tree.
