Goodbye Xena

I think Xena, the hawk, has peaced. There was a family of starlings in a ventilation duct I can see from my apartment. There is a long streak of bird shit under it. I think these starlings have also peaced. Where do birds go in the summer? Canada? The worst part is that now I have no signal, no grasp of what's to come. Birds make good omens, but they are staggeringly fickle in the end.

  1. we saw four young owls last night as the sun went down. They were hanging out in the neighbors yard. They and we watched from our yard for a while then when into their yard. They allowed us to get closer than I thought. Their owl sound was higher pitched - different than I thought too.

    They may have been spotted owls - Hard to say in the waning light. How about that - endangered species in our backyard.
