A small bird gets the high ground

Another bird-on-dinosaur this morning. Not a gull - maybe a sparrow or starling? We'll have to start packing binoculars.

Something we all carry

". . . the common secret of cowardice barely contained."
- from The Things They Carried, by Tim O'Brien

Gull on skull

This morning there was a gull on the Brachiosaurus cast in front of the Field Museum, watching traffic go by. It was the twelfth BOD (bird on dinosaur) we've seen this summer during the morning trip down LSD.

The holy grail: to capture our own photo of this rare phenomenon. This (birdless) one is from scienceblogs.com, per Google Images.

The country priest receives some advice


Do little things, from day to day, while you wait.
Little things don't seem like much,
but they bring peace.
