Peeps, I had a very strange experience today. I was sitting in my van to escape the wind and read a book. My lil dog was in my lap and my desktop held my iPad. It was all quiet and peaceful. My lift door was open. Suddenly a fluttering sound filled the van. A brown bird with a long beak was sitting on the seat just a foot away from me. I talked to him and he tilted his head sideways like he understood. After a couple of minutes he jumped over on my arm, not ten inches from my face. I continued to talk and he acted like he understood every word, cocked his head sideways just like a dog. He was not the least bid afraid. I put my face near him and he pecked me on the cheek. This went on for about twenty minutes. Then he flew out the door, perched on a bush and looked at me, and then flew away. I honestly felt like I had had a spiritual experience! And my bark-a-lot chihuahua watched but never made a sound. Am I nuts? Or have I been reading too much Edgar Allen Poe? It was a neat experience anyway.
