Nature of Politics: Presented by Three Birds

Three Spoonbill birds on a rock

Black-faced Spoonbills Discussion



Left Bird: My way or, I crap on this rock.

Right Bird: My way or, I crap on this rock.

Middle Bird: Quit arguing or, I crap on this rock.



End of the Day


The birds fly off  and, they are still friends.

Mother Nature has to clean the crap off the rock.

That's a crappy Tweet or Facebook post you could send everybody !

Politically Incorrect Birds in the Mangroves

Fear Not:  Nobody's Getting Political Here

 

After sorting the day's wildlife photos it's fun to exercise the imagination.


So, that's what I do sometimes, while waiting for the bars to open.


birds, spoonbill and egret



The egret on the left saw a stranger in the wetland.

That bird on the right isn't from Okinawa.  So, why's he hanging around here ?



egret appears to be talking




Get outta my swamp !

No ospreys are allowed in here !

So, the big bird on the right says, "I'm not an osprey.  I'm a penguin".

Oh.  Excuse me for being so blond.  Penguins are OK.

Nov 8, 2011 Okinawa Earthquake: Cockadoodledo !

The breaking news, breaking headlines, breaking the record for being the first to report it are at it, again !

Just before noon today Nov 8, 2001 in Japan we had an earthquake rattle a few things on Okinawa.

But, all the breaking-wind people come from somewhere else.  So, they'll be calling this the great Okinawa Earthquake of Nov 7, 2011. 

Depending on which experts you listen to, the quake registered 6.8 or 6.9.

People who have their feet on the ground, in Okinawa, Japan aren't all that shook up.  The news agencies just enjoy making the rest of the world run around like chickens with their heads cut off.

Today, I was standing in the isle between the baked beans and the canned tomato sauce when the earthquake hit.  I had a camera hanging off my shoulder.  The quake rattled the cans for a few seconds but, nothing fell.  So, I never tried to catch any photos.

The Earthquake was a couple of hundred kilometers (136 miles) away from Okinawa and a couple of hundred kilometers (130 miles) under the ocean.

So, I'd like to ask CNN, FOX News, US Coast Guard and everybody else running around like chickens yapping cockadoodledo a question.

What would make a bigger ripple (tsunami) in the water, an earthquake over 200 kilometers under the water or someone farting in a waterbed ?

Ya'll should stick to reporting the real news and quit trying to make news up.

EVERYONE IN OKINAWA, JAPAN IS FINE AND UNHARMED BY THE QUAKE !

Chinese Racing Pigeons and Sarah Palin Shoots Caribou

The news drifts over to Okinawa a bit late so, this might be old news to some folks but, I just thought maybe you'd like to hear my spin on it.

It appears the Chinese aren't all the poor, starving, straw cone hat wearing characters you might see  in cartoons or in travel photos and geography magazines.

You know, like cultivating tea plants, riding water buffalos or boats they call junks, those kind of pictures. Heck no. 
Some of these people have enough saved up to spend $205,000 on one pigeon from Belgium !

It's all verified through many sources, by me, with spasmodic internet service.

Sarah Palin, hah, the search engines are full of stuff about her shooting mooses and caribou.  I would have downloaded some videos for you but, that might offend some people so, if you really want to see them, help yourself or maybe you can just turn your TV on and catch one of her episodes.

Now, I'm not really a political type person. I stay away from politics and all their parties and just watch to see what happens.

That Sarah, she's kinda cute and doesn't act all stuffy and educated when she talks. Any gal who can look down the bore and shoot a moose is alright,  in my opinion, as long as she guts it, drags it outa the woods, loads it on the truck and brings it home to cook and eat. And if she can make some kinda hat rack or hood ornament outa the horns, tan the hide and reupholster the truck seats or the sofa, maybe make drapes, shower curtains or blankets with it, that'd be cool.

But, if she shoots the critters to prove she's just a regular guy, that's wrong. It's even scary, huh?

Remember when she was trying to be the #2 man in the USA ?  She said from where she lives, she can see the Russians coming. They must get the news late up in Alaska, too. Nobody told her, the Russians are supposed to be our friends these days.

Some people think Sarah Palin might try to run for President, next time around. Before it gets too serious somebody better go check her out. Find out which window she stands watch at, up there.

Get her a high powered spotting scope and some rocket launchers. Tell her to quit worrying about caribou and moose control and let her know the Russians are no problem, anymore.

Get a crew to pick up her cabin and turn the window towards China. She'll be the first one to spot the Chinese Racing Pigeons coming over.  That should keep her busy.  We can find a real man to do the silly presidential stuff !
