There's Just No Quitin'


As unbelievable as it may appear, this little birdie is still hanging from the power line. His fellow executed friend fell off the wire a couple of days after I took the first pictures, but this guy just won't quit. Deke sees him daily as he goes to work. This little guy has gone through a windstorm and 2 rainstorms yet has held on. When both of the birds were still hanging, we stopped one day to observe them up close and to check the ditch for other carnage. We were standing there observing things when a car stopped on the road. Some lady lowered her window and commenced to tell us all about the birds and her daily observation of their predicament. Apparently the crispy critters have been a topic of conversation for many a traveler. Just thought you'd like an update.
