The Dancing Birds

The first time I saw a video of the Starlings, I was mesmerized. I wanted to find out all the places in the world where one can see this happen. The closest place to where I live, so I could go there as quickly as possible. I've been addicted ever since. I keep seeing videos of these little wonders from time to time. It makes me smile. It makes me think of all the beautiful things around us. 

One day, I will see this with my own eyes. 

A lifetime is not enough

A friend shared some phenomenal documentaries with me about two weeks ago. One of the most enriching gifts I have received. Ever since, I have been addicted to watching them. There's this greed. To know more, see more, absorb more, about everything thats under, on and above this Earth. And what I've seen so far cannot be put into words. You have to watch it for yourself. The Crimson Wing and Home are just two examples of what lies out there. Unimaginable landscapes and behaviour patters of animals. Overwhelming.

Having watched a dozen of these documentaries has made me realise that none of us will never get to see even half of this gorgeous planet before we die. Yes, never. I am certain. The parts that are worth seeing that is.

So, so, tragic.

Travel as many times as you can. Explore as much as you can. And when you can't, try and get your hands on some such documentaries and books. Trust me, what you see on television on National Geographic and Animal Planet is just not enough. And once you've seen and read more, don't curse me if that wanderlust increases double fold. :)
