Congratulations Constance! This is such a true observation! We have had an invasion of crows. When they swoop down all the other birds are silent! Well down my friend. Congratulations! Blessings!

Grand imagery in these linked Haikus. A most enjoyable read that highlights bird tension superbly. Best wishes, Brian
