Monday, October 26, 2020 The Day the Birds Came

I saw them come
in twos and threes
They jostled and fluttered,
The seeds to seize.

The camera caught them,
Freezing their wings,
And blurring the lines
Of feathers and things

They chattered and gossiped
And shared birdie news
While I stood by silent
(So as not to confuse).

Oh, what a glamour,
What a glorious game
For me and my camera
The day the birds came.

I took 58 photos in about 5 minutes. Glorious game, indeed! Do you have a favorite? Do tell!

I’ll probably delete this in the morning…
