My territory
I will protect at all costs
Against the mighty.
I’m always amazed when I see small birds chasing Raptors (the mighty giants.) I’ve seen Chickadees making a fuss at the Barred Owls, Blue Jays trying to chase Hawks and in the above picture that’s a Crow or Raven trying to chase the Eagle out of it’s territory. You see this a lot in the spring time, or at the time they may be nesting. Nesting is a very important time for these birds an they will do any thing to protect the nest of their young ones.

I am a Christian who believes in Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. I also believe that Jesus will soon return to this earth.
If the Caterpillar can undergo a transformation, going from crawling to flying we too should be capable of accomplishing much more. We just have to attach our wings in the right place. The Caterpillar uses the Milk Weed as its host, its source for food. We too have a "Host" and He also provides us with an abundance of food. If we would use the fuel from this food (scripture) effectively, we too would be able to fly. Our "Minds" can be freed from all burdens and stress.
We can more easily be lifted up when we allow God to be our Host. He would continually feed us. God through His word can teach us how to fly...if only in our thoughts, if only in our minds.

We live in what once was Native American hunting grounds. The builders kept 300 acres open and natural, so the neighborhood did not overtake the whole area. We have a lot of animals out here. We back up to open space and it is like a bird and wild animal sanctuary. We always see the sparrows chasing the hawks and crows away. It is really intense in the spring and I call it “bird wars.” We can watch the action from our back deck. 🙂 It’s amazing how brave parents will be when protecting their young. God bless!
Wow 😮 that sounds so awesome, sounds like you are living in paradise with all that wildlife around. I have to go a little ways to get to a bird sanctuary, and the feeling is amazing every time I step from the main road to the trail. I take a deep breath in and only focus on what is around me. I was at first amazed when I saw the smaller birds chasing the bigger ones. Absolutely fearless. Have a blessed day.
It always amazes me too! Even more so that the raptor usually seems intimidated by the smaller bird and flies off. 🙂
I know—Isn’t that funny!! It usually brings to my mind the David and Goliath situation.
Oh yeah, that never entered my mind. But you’re totally right!
