Two very loving people I have great memories of. I think that helped not being too fearful of animals. I remember my dog being attacked by another dog when I was taking him a walk. It was a horrible experience and I was around ten, but even that didn't stop my love of wildlife. We always were surrounded by animals, dogs and police dogs because of my dad's work colleagues, cats, rabbits. I agree how graceful those birds are.DeniseinVAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08494518513936310345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5647334797160181392.post-39379368649290230082019-09-10T14:38:19.979-04:002019-09-10T14:38:19.979-04:00Thanks Ginny, I guess this 6 year old was too busy...Thanks Ginny, I guess this 6 year old was too busy fleeing :)DeniseinVAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08494518513936310345noreply@blogger.com
