Excellent post and I like your short story about the Red-winged Blackbird. The males have recently returned here in Ottawa from warmer areas down south and are staking claims to territory. I love the varied tones and notes they sing calling out. The females should be arriving in the next few weeks as well. Spring nearly here!
A wonderful post. I love blackbirds, that little flash of red on their wings. And I love your story! I think it could also be a picture book for kids, if you change the ending (I'm guessing). Your words are lovely!
I enjoyed the song about and the song of the redwing blackbird and your little story. We have a lot of them around my home, in the meadows and creek bottoms. I was just thinking the other day that I need to put the redwing blackbird into my stories.
To tease out apathy caused me to laugh out loud in the hotel lobby! Absolutely right on target to expose this as a societal issue. Perhaps it is time for the middle to awaken and flood the world with a grand dose of empathy!? Love the story and of course the delightful birds. insightful and inspiring.

What a lovely song! I've never heard that one before.
