As a citizen of the United States of America, I sincerely apologize for the decisions of the leaders of my country, who are acting without the support of their people.

Spring has sprung.

My apartment over-looks a large field that used to be an air-strip. There are a lot of birds around here, with the large field near a lot of forest, offering all different kinds of food and shelter. So the most recent bird to return to the area is the killdeer. I love killdeer. They look a lot like sandpipers, the ones you see scurrying around in the wet sand if you go to the beach. I saw them a lot when I was in college, because a common nesting area for killdeer, in developed areas, is in parking lots. Their eggs look just like small rocks, as a disguise mechanism, so a gravel parking lot is a perfect place for them to 'hide' their eggs. They circle all around in the sky and scurry around the parking lot, crying the whole time, in sharp tones that sound kind of like their name ("Noisy; a loud, insistent kill-deeah, repeated; a plaintive dee-ee (rising), dee-dee-dee, etc. Also a low trill." says Peterson's Field Guide to the Birds). Anyway, I just love having them around. And one thing I especially like is knowing that they're living in their natural habitat here, not just adapting to the environments we've created for our exclusive use. Granted, the airstrip is not perfectly natural, but it is no longer in use, and is a lot more natural than a parking lot.
