HAHAHAHA!!! As if anything is
really happening!
OK, so I was out walking this
morning. The first thing I saw when I walked out of my house was a hot-air balloon
high above the tree outside my front door. I could hear the gas jets hiss as
the balloonist made adjustments. So I looked at it for a few minutes, and waved at the balloonist just in case s/he could see me, and went on my way.
On my way home from the walk, a
yellow bird zipped by me and came to rest in a nearby tree—very high up. I knew
that there would be no point in going to get my binoculars, because birds
ALWAYS fly away when you go for the binoculars; but it stayed there so long
that I thought I'd take a chance. So I jogged home to get the binocs; and on my
way out the door I could see that the balloon was still visible far away, so I
trained the binoculars on it for a while, then went back to the tree. And the
bird was still there!
And the SECOND I aimed the
binoculars at it, it flew away.
Birds are just like that.
