Going nowhere... I feed crows on my balcony. I watched one yesterday as he took a nibble suddenly took off did a u-turn in mid-air took a curvy route and alighted on a distant coconut tree. It was all one swift non-stop elegant motion. I was left wondering, did he know exactly where he was going to land when he took off? Why didn't he finish the whole morsel of food - no one scared him. What is he thinking about when he is not thinking of survival?

holy cow ... does she know that ?
how do we take turns in mid air ? could be survival, could be a momentry lapse of reason. when i dont know myself completely how could i possibly know what being an ornate flying snake is like !
one thing is for sure ... we are all part of the same spectrum ... just seconds apart ! sharing similar problems ...
