Taking Time...................

Taking time for a little togetherness, this pair of doves have decided that my back garden is the place where they can relax and unwind, knowing that no predators lurk in the bushes. They come everyday, and even when madame and I stroll around the garden they do not fly off, what a gift that is to me, pure trust.......... The warmth of the sun soothes this precious angel to sleep................. (Click to enlarge the picture and the contentment of this bird is clearly visible.) Birds in most cases have lifelong partnerships, they are loyal, loving and deeply devoted not just to each other, but also to the task of caring for their chicks. Many people do not see the glory of these beings, some set traps for them when they enter their gardens, their crime is trivial, their pain excruciating, their torture and death meaningless. Like all birds their daily battle for survival is never ending, with the humans taking control over more and more of the land. What a sorry state the human mind is in to unleash such cruelty to anything that is seen as unfeeling and unintelligent...... In a world where any species that does well and thrives is viewed as vermin, I do wonder if other beings view the human in this way? Delicate and perfect, our Creator in the flesh....................
