COSAS
INSOLITOS OR STRANGE OCCURANCES!
Here
in Montserrat like other places where there is time to reflect
thanks to the few distractions present, we often see what we would
call "Cosas Insolitos" or strange occurrences. This
first one may surprise you as it did us. Hopefully, it will not
offend; but it is a true occurrence. At 7:23 AM we did our garden
walk as we customarily do each morning. We often count the blossoms
on the flowering bush at the back side of the house, but this
morning we were surprised to find two pigeons almost as if posed
underneath. Have a look at the photographs below to see if you
would classify this as one of our:
COSAS
INSOLITOS

they are dead and we guess that their last moments seem to be concerned
with each other, perhaps like . . . |

We
were surprised as we always are when these beautiful pigeons sometimes
fall out of the sky due to the effects poisons put out for rodents
like rats or those used routinely in agriculture and in home gardens,
like malathion.

| We
could not imagine it being anything else, for the way they seemed
to die together. |

Once
again, the effects of our actions are not often foreseen when our
intention is to harm one living creature, but not another. Oh well,
just another day in Montserrat?
P.S.
If you know the scientific name of this bird, we'd love to know.
