Free Mother’s Day Gift

By Peace | May 12, 2008

This is really a wonderful, wonderful day. First, in the afternoon, I saw two black Cuckoo on the tree just beside the place where I saw the peaceful dove flew across me and also the same place where the myna often meet me there. Today, it was a ‘bald necked’ myna which I saw on the roof top. Then I suddenly saw the two black birds which looked so much like crows on the tree, the familiar tree (my childhood tree), that produced red berries…

I took two photographs of the birds and after that my handphone battery went flat. The sound of the birds were so much like the coo-coo bird (the peaceful dove) which I had kept. The coo-coo sound from the peaceful dove is much more gentler. These of the cuckoo, I do not know what species it was, was very loud. It has black plumage and the eyes are red, with a yellowish beak. From far, it looks like crow. Yesterday at Metta Home, similar birds were seen on the tree, and we did not know whether they were crow or what birds (because they looked like crow but the sound is not of the crow, but coo-coo). So today, I got the answer. It is some kind of cuckoo, whether it is plaintive cuckoo, lesser coucal or greater coucal, I do not know, because I can only see everything black and just the eyes red and the beak yellow; and the distinctive coo-coo sound, loud and clear.

Together with the birds, I saw a green spider on the lamp post. It was the first time I saw green spider. On St Joseph Feast Day, I saw a rather big spider, about the size of fifty cent coin at the Chapel of Resurrection, the place where I paid my respect to my dead grandmother and uncle.

The birds stayed on the tree for as long as I waited for the children to be back. I showed it to them. Some QiHua Primary School children came to see also. When Ricsson came, the birds flew to another place, so fast, so sudden, and their feathers dropped. I caught hold of one and later we saw another three on the grass. I picked all up and I decided to keep them. It was such a wonderful gift of nature.

Two black cuckoo sighted, and four feathers collected. As we were walking back, Clara showed me four pigeons standing on the roof. What a strange sight; and first was one myna on the roof.

In the evening, more excitement awaits. It was such a wonderful, wonderful day, with amazing view, amazing sight, an all eye-opener, bird-watching, cats and dogs watching, everything nice!

This is my Mother’s Day Gift, the greatest Gift I ever have — the feathers, the beautiful animals which I seen and the beautiful scene of all the flying birds, especially the black crane again today. Today, I seen the MOST birds of all occasion so far, the MOST and the really all flying in all direction. Some even fly and soaring in circles, which seem to ‘parade’ for me to see, such a lovely scene, such a wonderful sight, real wonder, real beauty!
