Boring today...no one to talk to..haha. Shall recount what I saw today...Just before PE I was walking to the goal post when I saw something cool. It was a great black crow attacking a sparrow. They twisted and dived about in the air, like WW2 fighter planes. Soaring in a wide arc above the goal, the sparrow fled for its life as the crow inveitably drew closer. I watched, enthralled, and the sparrow dived low to the ground, skimming just above the garss, with the crow hot in pursuit. I thought the sparrow was going to lose for sure then. The smaller and nimbler sparrow pulled out of its dive, and banked to its right, soaring for the open skies, and the larger but less maneuverable crow tried to follow. Yet, slow in pulled out of its dive, the crow lost too much ground, and swung around, breaking off the chase. The sparrow had escaped, and the crow swooped to perch on one side of the goal, a menancing sentinal of death. It was captivating, the deadly dance of predator and prey, survival of the fittest, Darwin's theory of evolution, and natural selection; played out in the ksies above, with spectacualr display of arcobatics...its was amazing. What made this experience sweeter was that noone died. Haha. If not for such wonderful creatures, would man have longed to take to the skies? Probably not. They wouldn't even have invented the term "free as a bird"...Man, the great inventor, often takes his ideas from nature. And in the end, it is proven that nature will be the winner, at least until Man invents a weather control machine, whereby the enormous power of lightning and winds may be harnessed. Even so, there are creatures who can easily defeat man, were he without his weapons. in the face of it all, Man is often not the strongest force force on the planet. Mostly all he does is destroy. We are merely the most intelligent. School tomorrow. Lol..boring.><
