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

Yes 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. Locally they are called "pigeons." Click the mail to link HERE!
