Grotesque

It’s been rain, rain and more rain here in the Land O’ Salamander. This morning, briefly, the sun managed to find a cleft in the clouds. While I can’t say that the sun actually made an appearance, it was finally possible to see shadows outside. I opened the slats of the blinds by the deck to let some basking rays in for the sun-loving felids, and was greeted by this lovely sight:

I’m assuming nobody wants me to post a close-up. For those of you who see and yet do not believe, those are indeed a set of bird feet, still attached to the drumsticks. At a guess I’d say they used to belong to a robin (based on color and size). And no, I have no idea how they got there. I’m hoping that either the rain washes them away or whatever left them there comes back to finish breakfast. There is no way I want to deal with those directly.

  1. I’ve heard the term, "It knocked me off my feet," my entire life. (Usually regarding some horrible smell.) I just had no idea it could really happen until now. Wow. That poor bird. May I never be knocked off my feet. At least not like that!
