Life with Gaia

If it ain't broke...don't fix it

Went to the park at midmorning to fed the Ibis, ducks and squirrels. When I saw this bird sitting this way, I said, "oh my...what has happened to your legs - are they broken?" [forgetting, momentarily, that ibis can bend their legs this way].

So, I rushed off to gather the seed, which had not yet been eaten, to give to the bird. It must be starving after all...what with the broken legs. As I neared, it straightened its legs and flew into a nearby pine tree with its friends.

Imagine if humans bent this way... but then, I guess some can who are double jointed? I don't know.

I fell in love with so many of the critters at the park.
