6 thoughts on “The birds”

  1. Some grass in a field bounded by a wire fence, a gangly old tree with birds sitting on top of it, clouds intermingled with blue skies, more than one? A low red one story brick building, not a home, in company with other farmer’s working sheds, a single lane gravel road, green shrubbery, all common enough, and you say because, your camera.

    More than common is what I see. I see a finger on a camera button, that’s how. I see a mind that says, tells the finger when, that’s why. That’s what I think I see. All those things, and You. Unique.

    1. thank you for seeing so much here Neil. I have my favourite trees to visit and this is one of them. As the photo shows, it’s a lone, aged tree in pastureland. It shelters sheep and their donkey guardians at times and attracts the covids to roost – jackdaws and rooks. This sunny afternoon though the behaviour was strange – flocks in flight then settling then roosting in continuum and their massed calls were forte! This my camera aimed to capture – it is also a homeward bound view though at the time, I was walking away!

      1. Hmm… Forget Wordless Wednesdays – your able description brings so much more to the table, I’d have been sorry, even not knowing I was sorry to have missed your words – but now I’m a happy guy. You showed us something invisible too.

        And thanks again, you “field” picture now gone live. Turned out to be a joke shared with the physicist too. Beautiful.

        1. you hit it with the wordless bit Neil – its aiming to show the pre-linguistic or at least a compression of logos
          p.s. you took my field and gave it fluidity 🙂

  2. Forget the birds, forget the tree (magnificent though it is), my eye was immediately attracted to those clouds! What a sky.
