Birds

There is a documentary on Netflix called the Life Of Birds, and I watched it for the first time five years ago, and still watch it. Quite often I watch it on my Kindle as I'm falling asleep.

 Before seeing this series of ten episodes, I really didn't have any love or knowledge of birds. I always pictured them just flying around, building nests and feeding their babies whose mouths are always stretched with hunger. David Attenbourough hosts the series, and opened my eyes to an extraordinary world of birds and their amazing journeys through love and survival instincts.

 My favorite bird is the Waved Albatross, and even though their wing spans are not the longest of all the Albatrosses, they soar through the air for hours, riding the wind currents, without ever having to flap their wings. They look like beautiful aerial dancers floating without effort through the air.
