This is a love story.
Several years back, Richard (Treerat) Thatcher, Carole and I went to the Memphis Zoo.
There is a secretary bird there named Lily.
She fell in love with Richard.
When she first saw him, she stalked back and forth across her pen, watching him.
Then she brought him a dead mouse, to show him she would be a good provider.
We talked to one of the docents there, who told us her name. They said she really liked men. And we told them she brought Richard a dead mouse they said "She must REALLY like you!"
The next year we took their picture together. And each year they visit.
Maybe it's the blue uniform, it's the same color as her feathers.
And while I type this, I am playing TRUE LOVE WAYS by Buddy Holly in the background.
"And you know why...just you and I...true love ways."
