Birds

Took a short walk at lunch and witness two things that made me smile enough that I thought I'd share.

1) A sparrow furiously flying about 4" back and forth to grab a (rather large, ick) spider from its web at the top of a street light.

2) Two sparrows sitting on a porch banister, the one on the left that was slightly fatter hopped on top of the one on the right to get to the other side of the second bird.

Also, an older couple was walking along and I saw the husband move to walk on the other side of his wife, next to the street. And as my friend Rue taught me, "A gentleman always walks on the outside next to the street." Very sweet.

Sony NEX-5N

I received an extravagant birthday present from my in-laws... a new camera! The detail it picks up is amazing - some things that I can't see with my eye.
