Walking. When the eagles are silent, the parrots begin to jabber.
I’m thumbing through Instagram yesterday, and be damned if that photo doesn’t come across my feed. Location? Cove Island Park!
711 days. 711 almost consecutive daybreak walks at Cove Island Park. Like in a row. And not one, not one, single Eagle sighting.
And if that’s not bad enough, George, 50% of my Swan duo, is posing behind the Baby Eagle, as if to say, wake up idiot. WTH.
I send the photographer (Pituco1501) a note: “Wow. Great shot. I was there this morning and thought I saw an eagle, but then said nah, can’t be.”
I had punched out a text to Susan & Eric seconds after what I thought was an eagle: “Swear I saw an Eagle, but missed the shot!”
Eric replies: “B.S. Dad. It was a pigeon.”
Nice. And this coming from my offspring.
Instagram Photographer replies: “Thank you so much!!! I know it’s hard to see them. Be patient sooner or later you will!! 🦅🦅”
Nice touch with the Eagle emojis. If I can’t see them live, maybe I can roll around in emojis.
Be patient. Sooner or later you will. 🦅🦅
711 days, and counting.
My God, like when?
