Incredible Truths
May 30th 2009 15:03
When you actually spend time with nature, there are certain secrets at times that you pick up on that aren't in any books. Such as the crows warning me when a cat was at my bird feeder. A hawk or peregrine strike at the feeder. A bird landing on your cupped hands and taking a drink of the water you were about to wash your face with. All in a blink of an eye.
Nature continues to show its secret side which is being able to adapt to man's ever evolving world. We have the ever common mother duck going to seek help from humans when her ducklings are stuck inside a drain or on top of a building!
What shocks me is that it shocks people that animals can evolve to think of man as a chump. 'A food handout that possess items that catch our attention', is probably what animals see us as. In a bizarre story, a parrot steals a passport!
Animals are studying man, or so it seems. Meanwhile man is building more habitats so that they can multiply and invade us. Also take into consideration those groups, who shall remain nameless, that believe animals have rights or they are saving the planet. Sometimes conservation means to decimate. If certain animals are over populated they need to be controlled. This is true with the animals that have no natural predators. It is also true if a predator is dying off and the prey is over-multiplying.
A hawk strike at a feeder tends to wake the relaxed birds back to the natural order. In nature, life and death situations happen in split seconds. Man's interference helping animals that were doomed isn't helping the situation.
