So much bad has happened in the space of a week that it’s hard to wrap your mind around the numbing amount of discord and hatred out there. The awful events in Charlottesville involved anti-Semites as well as neo-Nazis spouting racial hatred.
I’d like to focus on the richness of our diversity by symbolically showcasing how “both sides” get along just fine in the bird world. Although I’m only able to symbolize this through black birds and white birds, and black-and-white birds, it’s intended to speak for the larger community of our united world, all living and treating each other with grace, respect, and dignity.
Feel free to add your own words and pictures (of any sort) to the mix and may we all dedicate ourselves to peace and non-violent expression of our personal truths.
So there we have it, birds in black and white. I never realized before how many there are and how many I have photographed. Feel free to share your own photos (of any color) and use this as an open thread to tell us all what’s going on in your birding world.
