HI, MY NAME IS RAY....
HI THERE MY NAME IS RAY... well, Raybird is my formal name, but you can call me Ray. This is a story about me, Ray and a strange female - human, as you would say and what happened on a sunny day in September on the Beach. Yep, I live at the Beach, it's my home. The Atlantic Ocean that is. I love taking my afternoon strolls along the Atlantic, but this afternoon, well, you will see what happens.................
They shoo me off...now this is the freaky part..."Betty has been watching and taking pictures of the girls and I", I mean, "give the guy a break"....
Now, here is the Best....she stops looking at me and does this....I know, I told you Betty is a little CRAZY!!! Those are her FEET!!! And, they are not even webbed?!?!?!? What's with that????
See, See I'm just strolling along, when strange female, i'm going to call her "Betty" starts following me. Now, I'm not shy or anything and I do like the ladies, if you know what I mean, but come on, she keeps pointing this silver thingy at me and "Clickity Click" it goes off. Talk about almost having a heart attack!
So, I try and look at her with one of my yellow eyes, but does she stop? Nope, she just makes a "awww" sound and then more clicking.... What's a guy gotta do around here?
Yeah I'm a gentlebird, so I try and ignore her, but nooooooo, she keeps on following me. So I get this idea in my head, "I think I'll visit my ladybird friends and see if I can shake her....but all my girls start hackling at me because one of these humans are feeding them and well, ladies at lunchtime, don't even get me started. And you all know what I am talking about, get a couple of them together, after a long hot day in the sun, drinks and snacks - us, gentlebirds are not a welcome sight! Ok, so more with my story....
So, I once more try and shake her...yeah a little embarrasing...she get's a glimpse of my backend and all, but hey, if she doesn't mind, then neither do I, is my motto!
'mI'm tell you this, "Betty" is one looney bird, no pun intented here....but at least she has stopped stalking me, so whatever floats your boat, as they say.....Oh Wait, I think she is coming in after me...GOTTA FLY!!!! :)
