Wordless Wednesday - The Birds



My sister and I used to go to the zoo together all the time with my niece. Each and every time my sister loved feeding the birds. I wanted to so badly, but got scared every time. I couldn't do it. She tried every time to get me to feed the birds. She was very patient with me, but I just couldn't do it. Just recently my boyfriend, niece and I went to the zoo again and I DID IT!! For the first time ever I actually stuck out my hand and had a bird (or two) land on it and then eat the apple. HOLY COW IS IT NERVE WRACKING!! It is so scary to have a live animal perch on my arm and eat. What if they miss? What if they peck my eyes out? What if - what if--- Animals are so amazing to me. I cannot get enough, but the fact is, they are wild and can never predict what they will do.

We had chickens when I was a kid, and I was always so nervous when I had to go collect eggs. They're just so jumpy and flappy and pecky.
