Opposition in All Things

Yesterday I looked out the back window and couldn't believe all the cute little birds I could see. There was a whole flock of these little grey birds with yellow tip tails....I watched them for a while and then decided to try and get a picture. (which was hard since they were flying everywhere). They were so cute! There was also a black and white woodpecker with the cutest red head! I thought how wonderful it is to have such cute little creatures in the world.....Just flying along, minding their own business, stopping for a drink at the bird bath.......THEN........

Today, I went out to sweep off the deck. I couldn't believe the mess! Those cute little birds, who were so much fun to watch yesterday, had left their little droppings...(my kids know I don't say the "P" word) all over my patio, deck, table, chairs etc. What a mess! I guess there really is opposition in all things! I spent today cleaning.....but I'm still glad I got to see those cute little birds! Hopefully they have flown south for the winter! (I'm really thankful they weren't geese!)
