Although sparrows are loud, noisy, naughty and even disturbing, I often spend some minutes of my day simply gazing at these little birds, trying to distinguish between them. Some are small, some big, some leaders and some weaklings and then there are baby birds that I can easily find out as they are the most under confident ones.
However, this evening I was not concerned about the aforesaid but I spent half an hour watching the type of war fare the sparrows are capable of in a peaceful corner of a park. As I was watching them, suddenly a pigeon showed up and she promptly caught the piece of bread that the sparrows had been busy with. Looking at that scene, I thought of the world of human beings.... The stronger and bigger they are, either in size or in wealth, they always try to defeat the smaller and unfavoured.... Not always are the good things shared among equals, either .....

ReplyDeletegood observations of the animal kingdom, Belita; i think i want to be a lion in my next life, hee hee :)
ReplyDeleteSince the birds and the other animals were here before human beings, it is more likely that we resemble them than that they resemble us.
ReplyDeleteI've always liked sparrows. There's something indefinable about them, I think.
