I tend to paraphrase because I write on the fly. From now on, I shall write on larger insects. Sunday, May 14, 2006. I've been shown up by a bird. Not just any bird, mind you, but a redtailed hawk. Allow me to explain. That's where it gets complicated. It was an embarrassment. That's when I heard the hawk. But this time, it just seemed that God was out to prove a point. The redtailed appeared, leaving some pines across the street from the field where my humble attempts at free flight were being snuff...
