Ah, I can feel the bird's yearning. If only wishing made it so. But maybe a painted sky is a feasible escape for a painted bird.

I think this is an allegory for Obama's exit strategery in Iraq & Afghanistan.
Not that it matters. He has that vision of a beautiful blue sky, & he'll keep banging his head against his ideal of the sky, never realizing it for what it is--never considering for a moment that his perspective is the result of a flawed paradigm.

I expect it's incidental, but at this resolution, that little gray spot to the left of the Shrike looks like a mouse impaled on a thorn.
You're not using Birds of North America as your reference, are you?

I’m shocked, I need to say. Really seldom do I go through a blog that’s both educative and interesting, and without a doubt, you might have hit the nail on the head. Your current concept is definitely outstanding; the thing is whatever insufficient people are talking intelligently about. I will be happy that found it within my try to find something relating to this.

Next time I read through a blogs, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I'm talking about, I am aware it was eventually my choice to read, however I essentially thought you'll have something useful to express. Most I hear is mostly a bunch of whining about something you might fix if you werent too busy looking for consideration.

With every thing that appears to be developing inside this area, a significant percentage of viewpoints tend to be very stimulating. Nonetheless, I am sorry, but I can not give credence to your whole strategy, all be it exciting none the less. It would seem to me that your opinions are not totally justified and in simple fact you are generally yourself not even thoroughly convinced of the assertion. In any case I did appreciate reading through it.
