Happy Valentine's Day all and let's not forget Beauty. Heal well and fly the skies!


Do you know when you wound any dear little bird,
Or take from its home-nest another,
That the cries of their anguish in heaven are heard,
That God pities those birds and their mother?

Do you know the same God made the birds and the boys,
And both for the very same reason,
That each life should be bright with its homes and its joys,
For each in its measure and season?

Do you know if you hark to the song in the air,
So sweet in the freshness of morning,
That the birds seem to sing, "We will trust to your care
To keep us from danger and mourning?"

Do you, if you'd listen with soul and with heart,
You never would ruffle a feather
Of the dear little birds that make our glad world a part,
For all are God's children together?

Jeff's video of a baby seal crying for FOOD!!!! Mom on the rock next to it! So cute!! This is not in Antarctica, Jeff is on a hiatus and has "gone fishing"!

Thank you Carol, good answers considering we really don't much of what happened on that Friday. Sometimes I think, is this really happening? 

Today I received a message from a concerned citizen, I am not saying who but this person brought up some good questions that maybe someone can or try to answer. Thank you!

I am confused about the idea that Beauty was fought by Unity.  Did anyone see the fight? Are her wounds consistent with a fight?  How is it that Beauty nearly killed Mariah and beat her up badly and yet this experienced fighter loses to a bird nearly her same age.  Is Unity showing any signs of the fight?  Is it possible Beauty fought with owl or eagle rather than Unity?  Was there any reports of Beauty showing signs of her fight with Mariah back 3 years ago?  I am really finding it hard to believe Unity and Beauty fought.

Any takers?

Some blood-curdling fights! I take that back what I said about Canadian falcons.  This is such scary stuff.

Thanks Alison.

According to MAK, Unity is above the nest where the red line is! Opposite side from where Beauty sits.
