It was a scenic sunday morning in the monsoon season. With birds chirping around the house, taking headshower in the overflowing waters from houses make one feel a pure bliss. I was also optimistic about the human- other creature cohabitation. The reason behind is that we might have destroyed ponds but it’s where the brain child of human – the overflow waters comes to the rescue of other species.
Moving away from overall scene , I zoomed lighter into one particular hardworking lady of the family named “Ms.Sparrow” .She was very energetic in collecting the straw to build her nest in the left alone pipe in my neighbourhood .I was observing this lady for sometime now. It has the routine work of collecting , collecting , collecting ….
Two days later, I saw the nest in place . I wished happy life to it . But it didn’t last longer as its villian ” monsoon winds ” seemed mightier before its straw knitted nest.If I had known its language , I could have suggested to use “fevistick” or “plaster of paris”. Unfortunately , I couldn’t communicate this to the poor bird . So , I thought of reducing its pain for that day by collecting few straws myself and kept aside for the bird to take it . Well, as expected the bird was in ease of doing its business that day.
Few days later, the same scene got itself into a “for loop” . The situation is repeating and the bird never tires of its collection work….But I was tired after two loops . I wondered where does the energy for the bird comes from ? Knowing that the nest will not last longer ,it still builds it … Understanding that all its efforts will go in vain in couple of days , it still hopes …But it never expected the mercy of the monsoon winds to stop and not even once pleaded for its pathetic position ! It was a mind opening moment for me.
We may have mastered the technology to imitate the Bird’s eye view. But there is a long way for the mankind to interpret how the bird eye views – “The Life”
