Jai - You were the first person here to reach out to me, and I'll always remember you for that. Thank you so much for being there when I need a shoulder to cry on. You've been such a dear friend for me.
Have a wonderful weekend in the creeks with your feathered friends. Hugs to you!
Emmy (came out of hiding just for your special day!)

first of all, you better read this. it does have your name in the subject line and if somehow you fail to see that, i'll be very disappointed in you.
miss jai, my favorite bird lover ever created, i do want to say 'thank you' for reaching out to me as well. though we may not have the same opinion (on birds of course, darn flighty creatures) you sure are special to me dear. i hope you have the best day ever today, and tomorrow, and forever!
oh, and you asked me where i was from. indi-stinking-ana. not boston, though boston sounds nice right now. are you up for a visit? i'd love your company. just make sure you only wear the apron, ok? and you have to cook of course. i know, i know, so many rules but i must maintain some level of control in this situation if i am to see a woman of your beauty, right?
(((jai))))

Happy Jai Day! May I bake a cake in your honor? How about a boston creme pie decorated with red-hots?

We just got back from the trip. We were away for 4days and 3 nights. I slept 2 hours a night and the rest of the time I was awake waiting for sleep. It was exhausting. I am so sick of being over tired, bitten by bugs, I fell down twice and bruised my knee and turned both of my ankles 1/2 dozen times, somehow I cut my tongue, I was climbing a rock and got stuck by a pointed branch (it got me in the tender area right above my belly button), I found a tick on me and god knows the tiny ticks might be there too, the one I found was huge....I have a wicked sunburn. I was totally burnt out today (this being the last day). I have bruises, bites and sun burn all over my body.
Other than that I had fun. Saw lots of birds, ate wonderful food and got to stay in exotic places. We came home and we're greeted by a huge storm front, lightening and rain.
It was 90 degrees at Plum Island where the Parker River National Wildlife Refuge resides and it has areas with boardwalks. We were walking around the boardwalks. The trees with the most flowers had bugs on them and the warblers were busy eating all the bugs. These birds in person are soooooo beautiful! Their colors, stripes and shapes were so vivid and luscious. There were dozens of species of these birds: warblers, shore birds, wading birds, hawks and a barred owl.
The Barred Owl was a rather mystical experience. We were walking on a path from the pond at dusk on the Ipswich Wildlife Sanctuary. We were singing the song, "Under the pale moon light we danced, spirits dance we danced, holding hands we danced, singing souls rejoice".....we were singing this in a round. We had been singing "White Coral bells upon a slender stalk.....". Our voices where lovely and true. Then I felt some eyes on me. I turned and thought I saw a woman in feathers but I realized it was a mature Barred owl. The owl was not more than 20feet away and on a branch that was only 6 feet from the ground and it had just eaten and was rousing and cleaning it's foot.. The bird was so comfortable with us there. We sat down and watched. My honey was holding his heart. It brought tears to our eyes. The owl hung around and then soundlessly flew into the woods.
We went back to our cabin to a serenade by a Woodcock and it's mating dance. That took place in the dark so all we could do was listen to this wild calling and then the sound of wings as it launched it's self into the air up 30feet in the air and falls to the ground like a leaf....The woodcock it such a cool looking bird.
Okay enough but it was fun and so different. Yes I wish I had gotten some sleep, bitten a little less and stopped falling down so much but.....I did have a good time.
Thank you so much for the Jai day....You are the bestest....I am touched.
