BIRDS...

yellow Finch

"Birds were created to record everything....

   ... they were not designed just to be beautiful jewels in the sky...

                          ...but to serve as the eyes of heaven." -Suzy Kassem

"In order to see birds....

 ...............it is necessary to be part of the silence." -Robert Lynd

                     Grackles (cow birds)

"The robin flew from his swinging sprig of ivy on to the top of the wall 

    and he opened his beak and sang...

               ...a loud, lovely trill.

                                      ...merely to show off.

        Nothing in the world 

                                          is as adorably lovely

                ...as a robin

                                     when he shows off.

and they are always nearly doing it." -Frances Hodgett Burnett (the Secret Garden)

     "A bird can carry all the sky..." -Harold Monro
