We were eating lunch at Wendy's by the window and I saw a
hawk or a buzzard circling high up in the air.
I don't know how to tell the difference between a hawk and buzzard high up in the sky gliding
around and around, staying in the same area.
If it was a hawk, it would have been watching his prey, probably a small
animal like a chipmunk, waiting for the right moment to dive and snatch it up.
And of course, if it was a buzzard it might have smell the
rancid older of meat decaying directly
below. What was directly below? A storage facility!
I wondered if a body might be hidden in one of the
units. But I didn't wonder too long, the
gliding bird glided away. It was
probably a hawk, and the hawk saw his little buddy crawl down a hole and
it moved on to hunt some more small
innocent playing animal.
BUT! I wondered if
what if the bird stayed and circled and circled and it was a buzzard? Would that give the police a reasonable
reason to think there was a dead body in one of the units? And if so, can they start snapping the locks
to find it? Just wandering.
When I see a buzzard circling, I check my pulse and see if I have a fever.

Eddie, that doesn't look like a buzzard - buzzards are sooo ugly! I ran across four of them back a few years ago, going after road kill. Disgusting creatures - but I guess they have a purpose in nature.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of storage, a few years ago I rented a storage unit and it clearly states on the lease agreement that no dead bodies are to be stored....I couldn't help but laugh at that one...
But, the mafia [and gangsters] use to do it all the time!
Deborah, I suppose it is a buzzard. I got it off Google. it wasn't meant to be the buzard I saw, just a buzzard in a glide mode.
