“I think we consider too much the good luck of the early bird and not enough the bad luck of the early worm.” – Franklin D. Roosevelt
My neighbor, knowing I’m a passionate birder, called me yesterday afternoon and simply said: “”Go out on your balcony and look to your left.”
I did. And below is what I saw. Aren’t they cute?
A pair of mourning doves. These birds get their name from the mourful wooing-cooing sound they make. They are this country’s most common dove.
It pays to let others know what you want in life, especially if it’s seeing birds. I would have missed this wonderful sight if not for my thoughtful neighbor.
