Birds Online

You don’t have to have Internet to be “online” as you can see on the photographs that follow this article. Yes, I ask you to pardon my pun about the wording but sounded attractive and I did it!

One of the most popular perches for birds are the different kinds of utility and communication lines, everywhere the man has reached to colonize. I’m sure that all of you have seen bird perched on lines when you have traveled by road or train, haven’t you? That’s exactly why I’m writing this post today. In a way these lines provide comfort to birds to take a rest after a long journey or resting when migrating to short or long distance places!

  1. “Bird on the Wire” is one of Leonard Cohen’s “signature” songs back from the late 60’s, early 70’s. Thanks to Tom for reminding me! Apparently there’s a performance of it on YouTube I’ll have to check out soon.

    • I get it now I knew a bit about him but not enough of his repertoire to make the analogy. I’m sorry!
      Thank you a lot Lisa! 🙂
