"Birds will give you a window, if you allow them. They will show you secrets from another world - fresh vision that, though it is avian, can accompany you home and alter your life. They will do this for you even if you don't know their names - though such knowing is a thoughtful gesture. They will do this for you if you watch them." ~ Lyanda Lynn Haupt, Rare Encounters with Ordinary Birds

Birds in the NFL: Atlanta Falcons
Another portrait, partly because I suck with a pen, and partly because I find the eyes of birds of prey mesmerizing. They're so intense, in part because of that ridge over their eyes. I love birds of prey, but I don't find them cute. They're fascinating and beautiful, but definitely not cute.
