~ Black Bird ~

                    DsDesignsBlackBird.jpg picture by 55hockeyfan

Or is it?  I'm far from a bird watcher, and I really have no idea what this is.  A very large black bird, a crow, a mag pie.  What I do know is there are tons of them by my work.  They are noisy, and somewhat mean to the smaller birds in the area.  They don't hurt them, but as you watch the smaller birds gather twigs and such for their nests these big things swoop in and scare them away.  They are always around.  Doesn't matter the time of day or weather.   Every time I see them I watch and think of this ...................
 
           
 
just thought I'd share that.  LOL 
 
Today it is in the 40's, it's dark and gloomy but no rain yet.  It did rain throughout the evening and I heard a few booms of thunder.  They are saying the temps will drop again and we have a chance of wet snow.  Oh the joy!  Nothing like a few flakes in April.  NOT!!!
 
I'm off to shop.  For me..  OMG!  Can you believe it?  I hate shopping....  yes a female that hates to shop.   I need new slacks for work.  I have winter ones and summer ones but nothing for in between.  I need something that fits and isn't falling off me.  Wish me luck!!   
 
Hope everyone has a great Saturday!
 
Hugs

    Looks like a fat crow to me but what do I know...lol?  It is cold and dreary here today, yuck.  It was sleeting when I got home from grocery shopping but, as you know, this is petty typical for this area for April and even May.  Love ya, Chris

    I hope you had luck on your shopping trip.  I enjoyed Paul McCartney's Blackbird, it goes right along with that picture.
