I think that I have discovered the tree hugger in me. Earlier today I was driving around and just looking. Normal fashion of me, I spaced out at a red light. Two birds flew past me. It occured to me how unnatural it seemed. I mean the birds are great, but everything else around them was manmade. Then I got mad because they weren't meant to nest in street lights and in the bullseye of the Target light. They were meant to nest in trees. They've just adjusted to their surroundings. But should they have had to? I could get on a soapbox right now, but I'll save you and me both some time. Of course I'm not going to boycott progress, but I can feel that it's just not right.
