Seagull the Mugger

I and my sister we’re busy taking pictures of different flowers outside. We didn’t notice that a flock of seagulls we’re attacking our grilled halibut. Perhaps the smell is so enticing.

Though we scared them away one bird was so persistent of having a share of our meal…. Of course I can’t let this moment pass without documenting the second attack of this seagull.

“Peek-a-boo” – see his devilish smile? well, this time I have to chase him

The bird is really persistent… maybe at this time he’s planning how to attack our meal.

Woosssshhhh…. not working eh?

To the left …. to the right…. Yap, this bird is ready to attack!

 

Unfortunately (for him), the fished is already cooked. But we spare a share for him… Hope he’s satisfied….

Captcha!!!

I was awakened with the loud chirping of bird one cold afternoon. And when I opened my two tired eyes there I found a bird freely flying in our room. Slowly I grabbed my camera and took a pic of it. I attempted at least eight then CAPTCHA!!! Got it! Got it!!! GOT ITTT!!! Yehey!

Bird Flying

Birds can freely play inside the house because of the open windows. One time I jokingly told my mother that I was like inside the convent, where we can only hear the rustling sounds of the winds and chirping of birds. Mama hates music! She only wants the sound of silence… LOL…..

I love to see the birds flying inside the house except that they left there dung on our bed… LOL….

BIrds Poo Hmmm… I’m wondering why they poop on one side only?

10.10.10

…. and probably 10:10 in the evening when our beloved Cheeky, our pet dog,  passed away. I could not say any other words but I’d like to thank him for giving us a unique kind of friendship and joy  that we could never forget. May his soul rest in peace.

We will miss you Cheeky… Send our regards to Taochi and Bugoy… 

Cheeky Cheeky with my sister, Jeia

Turkey: The Plant Destroyer

Our neighbor-cousin has a new pet/animal – turkey. (LOL.. i'm confused about what term should I used). Their tail may look attractive especially when it’s fully open but this feathery animal destroys my mom’s garden. We only found one day when my mom’s rare birds-of-paradise was almost bald. All leaves were eaten by it. And so we decided to place a temporary barricade, since we do not have a fence in between our neighbor-cousin house and ours. Although it minimizes the chance for the turkey to go to our garden, unfortunately it could still fly and jump of over the barricade. (Sigh…) But at least now it lessens its visit to my mom’s garden.

The Year of Shit and Shift: Escaping, Surviving, and Searching for Peace

 This year was nothing short of chaos—a year of shit and shift . We left, unprepared, from the place we called home for 14 years. We carrie...
