Twitchers Awake!

"It's Time"
For politics says Gough Whitlam
For twitching says the birdwatchers
August has started and before you realize it the birds will be getting twitchy.
The urge to build nests will become a driving force.
How many times have I come in on the tail end of things due to some sort of unawareness both in the natural and the spiritual realm.
Like the girl in the song below, I sometimes miss the moment.
Song of Songs (Which is Solomon's)
The voice of my beloved! behold, he cometh leaping upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills. My beloved is like a roe or a young hart: behold, he standeth behind our wall, he looketh forth at the windows, showing himself through the lattice. My beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away. For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone; The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land; The fig tree putteth forth her green figs, and the vines with the tender grape give a good smell. Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away.

As I read through this song from time to time I see the girl missing special moments for one reason or another



My blogging has been interrupted by some visitors bearing wattle. I think it was one of those moments.
For every day that I am free, every day I have food on my table, every day I live in peace, every day that I am well I am thankful.





Now , something about those birds
Jesus said, "Look at the crows, they don't plant seeds, or gather a harvest, they don't have store rooms or barns, God feeds them and you are worth so much more than the birds".
Someone else has said "Birds of a feather flock together"

Here are three really common Australian birds, The magpie, Willy Wagtail and Mudlark.
They either like each others company or are attracted to the same areas.
You will often find a Willy wagtail's and a Mudlark's nest in the same tree.
You will notice that they are all in the black and white army.
One day while traveling to school in the horse and buggy I noticed two willy wagtails attacking a crow, they had the crow down on his back and were really giving him what for and no way could he get the right way up.
Maybe it was because he did not have any white on him.
Not too much different to some people!
