As I was tending to Abbie today, I could hear weeping and and whaling coming from the back yard. I new Mick was outside, so I was not terribly alarmed. The crying got louder the closer it came to me. Soon enough, Mick was holding Aspen's hand inside Abbie's room, while Aspen was in the middle of freak out mode. Those of you who know Aspen well, can now visualize what was occurring.
Mick said with a grin "Look what happened mom", "Aspen got pooped on by a bird". Just a nice little squirt of white goop on her hand. That bird, what a sucker to cause such drama. Just for the reaction alone, I'm sure the little bird will be back around for another dive bomb.
I told Aspen that she has now joined the official Bird Target Club. I joined it several years ago while riding bikes around the block as a kid. A sudden pat on the head and then that liquid feeling. Last summer was the last time it happened. The birds must see me as pretty as a flower or a new clean car for that matter. I'll take it as a compliment! I'm not sure Aspen will see it in that light. Take the poll. Let's see how many of you have been the target of a winged, mid-flight bowel movement!
My car has been pooped on plenty of times, I've even killed a few birds by hitting them with the car, but I've never had a bird poop directly on me! That's quite an initiation to be a member of the club!! I hope she recovers well!!
ReplyDeleteOkay, so i didn't understand the poll because I read it before I read this post. I thought you meant being surprised on an airplane and having to poop in the tiny airplane bathroom...I was thinking that sounded kind of a gross topic.
ReplyDeleteA bird pooped on Chloe a few weeks ago while we were walking home from church right on top of her head.
I put No on the poll...but I would change the answer if I could.
Not to me, but to my missionary companion in the middle of a first discussion in the park. Needless to say, there went the spirit.
