Fascinating as always. You invariably take me to places I'd never go alone.
I had a feeling it was the ground-nesting birds that inspired this piece. They are curious, as you'd imagine they'd've been evolutionarily unsuccessful...if you believe that sort of thing:)
Hello @deirdyweirdy,
Thank you for visiting.
I'd never go alone.
😆
I don't think I'd go there at all, even on a private jet (the only way to travel Ha Ha Ha).
Isn't it amazing that they can nest in such vulnerable positions and yet the species endures. There is a very high mortality for ground nesters in some places, but enough survive to keep the species going it seems.
I do believe in evolution. How could there be the development of antibiotic resistance, or new strains of COVID, for example, unless organisms could evolve? It's common sense, I think.
Looking forward to reading your next blog. It is bound to be unique, as always.
