Big Bird's Long Lost Family?

Doesn't big bird live in New York? Yeah, on Sesame Street? Well I think his relatives live here in the woods behind our apartment. Think I am kinding? Um, no I am not.

This is not a cultural thing cause Texas has big birds like hawks and buzzards and seagulls are usually a big bird. But here the birds are on seriods or something, they are big freakin' birds. You've seen the vultures on the side of the road, 36 on the way to Abilene, nibbling at the skunk road kill (which is their fault cause many a time have I seen them prancing in the middle of the road, you think the poor things would learn). Anyway those vultures a freakin' scary, you are glad you are in the car and they are out there, am I right?

I kid you not the birds are big here. First off the seagulls are nutty big. When you ride the ferry to Seattle you might see many animals, I saw a group of seals once, and then I was frightened by the giant sea birds. Out of control big. Like seriously the size of a vulture, I am not kidding nor exaggerating. And there is this other bird, a big black bird like a crow or raven or something. Man they are scary. The all sit in the trees and make these scary noises. It is seriously the juggle gym scene from The Birds. They just sit there, it makes me glad I have a hard top car. My dad keeps telling me to let Abbey outside to play. HA! Are you kidding me? There is a reason why there aren't any squirrels here, the big ugly birds eat them, I like my kitty I don't want her to be a kitty sandwhich for Black Bird. And I mentioned the scary noises. It is seriously like the Haunted Forest in the Wizard of Oz. It is always cloudy and they make this caw caw I have to make sure flying monkeys are hovering on the horizon.

But since it has gotten cold I haven't seen them as much. I would hate to wish that some one else have to deal with them, but I think they have travelled on for a warmer winter. All I can say is see ya!
