Okay, so, I had a really weird dream last night that kinda turned into a nightmare. It was morning, and I woke up to the sound of a huge flock of starlings, so I got up and looked out the window and, as suspected, there was a huge flock of starlings, but then it just kept getting bigger until the sky was covered in birds. It wasn't just starlings anymore, it was crazy. The world got really dark, but once the birds passed everything seemed pretty normal. EXCEPT!!! There were all sorts of cool birds all over the place, a really rare bird came to the bird feeder, I can't really remember what it was, but it was so cool. I grabbed my camera and tried to take pictures of it. Key word: tried. My camera wasn't working and the rare bird flew away. Then I woke up feeling really disappointed.
Black Vulture We named the little fella Charlie. His wing is broken/fractured (We're not sure which), and it healed badly, but Charlie seems to be doing a great job at surviving anyway.
