Oh So Lonesome

Break Away Be Alone

Sitting alone perhaps a break from constant chattering crowds _{never lay blame, good decision taken}, lonely highly doubtful, good company later when in the mood.

Solitary little birds very handsome to see, perched on grasses swinging in the breeze or branches high in trees, _{do what you want, when you want to.}

Lets take a look, then take a guess as to what they are up to!

Perched above the waters edge ready to swoop down and catch a fish, exactly what an African fish eagle is designed to accomplish in life, no partner peradventure displaying regally, ladies are in town.

Shy glance over the shoulder, perhaps I'm small, but my type might just be hanging around this neck of the forest.

Am I the right beau for you? Murmured the African stonechat from the next tree...?

Nuff of that, I'm a labourer hard at work, men at work to make a future!

See right below now I'm busy with construction, this is my apartment for tomorrow said black-collared barbet .

While he's smashing away I'll grab some berries, all my own to enjoy for now....

Then off to a higher apartment to construct my own, never stop to long said white-eared barbet you never alone, girls are watching silently in the surroundings.

Started with fishing, so lets end it there, here the Pied kingfisher taking a break close to the waters edge, perhaps feeding young ones at the end of the day!

Thanks for sticking by the story telling, always fun trying to guess what our feathered friends are up to when out alone.
