i saw for the first time, nature taking away another's life...

a stray duckling(not duck) was waddling along, then suddenly a crow comes down, picks it up by the neck(which i think killed it right there), then proceeded to fly a bit away so it could rip apart its carcass piece by piece... harsh, but such is biology, and life taking away life... oh, you cringe about it, but hey, we're meat eaters too. we just never see chickens and bulls as cuddly 80% of the time when they're on our plates.

and i also saw, what you could consider to be teenage ducks... they were grey all over, and when they tried to "quack," it came out more like "peep." but they were much larger than ducklings, so. figures they gots to be teens.

finally, i also saw baby squirrels, that's right. i think there was a mother watching over 1 in the tree about 6 feet above ground watching her other youngun pick away at a nut on the ground not too far away.

i love nature.

and i don't care that it's been raining a bit lately, even though this should be spring; i love drizzles, and besides, it helps keep my allergies down a bit :D
