#unitedkingdom #england #falconry #birdlife (at Ben Long Falconry, Gloucester)
A silence moment
for sunset
goes unobserved
by angry Canadian geese
honking petty grievances,
the two-part cackle
of red-winged blackbirds
seeking a hook-up,
the barely perceptible
wing flap
of Snowy egrets
surprising their supper.
