A pictorial explanation here about nature's care for children!
An explanation is required for a recent post about an Egyptian Goose sitting high up on a tower and I have decided to provide the explanation in pictorial style.
Only nipping outside today to snap advancing clouds, as the wind is now running at about 80 kmh and it will blow a skinny guy like me into the sea hahaha.
We have another severe cold front arriving today.
In any case here's some photos that I took on the weekend.
Hope you will enjoy them!
Many asked me why the goose was sitting so high up!
This is what the goose on the tower is looking after!
His wife has a tribe of goose babies!
While they wander around eating the dad on the tower has to keep a watch for predators!
But what are the predators? There they are! Some Jackal Buzzards circling high above looking for prey!
They didn't attack the babies and so, to steady your nerves here's something nice!
Mother nature's systems can so easily be revealed to an inquiring eye. Animals are known to protect their offspring with their own lives and many a poor human had the misfortune of ending up in nature between an enraged mother and her babies. Respect nature and she will respect you!
I always have a tear in my heart when I see how protective parents are of their children in the wild. We claim to be so much wiser as humans and we have so many more comforts. Why then do some parents abuse, or dump their babies?
We have so many of these cases over here.
Papillon has thus far worked with a few homes for unwanted babies and I think here of one home that made a delivery hole in their front wall, where mothers can anonymously dump their babies.
Yes, oh yes, I know there are many reasons such as poverty and survival, or unplanned pregnancy's, or for so many other reasons, but what about the abandoned little child?
Why would a father burn a child with cigarettes, or physically beat a child to death? Angry? Of course I am angry as no such treatment can be justified under any circumstances. We face a severe struggle here to protect children and gender violence is also rampant.
The lessons about love in nature is either unknown, or ignored.
Time for us to wake up methinks!
