to kill or not to kill? that is the question.

Suppose you're scorpio like me. Many years ago on a Greek island i also took al glass and a sheet of paper and moved a scorpion out of the house while everybody else fled outside...also remember when i was 3 years old in my Old folks garden in Marseille where i heard the "grenouilles" croak in a little pond.

The other day i had the privilege of rescuing a sparrow-hawk that had crashed into our window at the summer house. He was lying up-side down peddling his claws like a baby. As i turned him around he just kept ending up on his back. I picked him up and had a beautiful moment looking into his wild yellow eyes.

After talking to a wildlife care taker who told me to kill him!? I called a person that happened to have a lot of contacts and found a man who drove 14 Swedish miles to catch up the bird. He advised me to put him in a box with holes and then into a wardrobe for several hours since he had a concussion. Nothing was broken though and after 4 days the hawk had been feeded small birds that had crashed into the rescuers window....a Black-birdmy favourite one) and so he finally flew away...

That's awesome. I can imagine how you felt when the bird flew away.

I have looked into the "yellow wild" eyes of a great horned owl who came down our chimney the first night we moved into our current house. He spent some time in our kitchen until we encouraged him out one of the doors.

You are right, I am a scorpio. And my avatar is one of the scorpions we photographed at night on the back wall of the house I previously lived in.
