We've Been Flocked

Yesterday, our yard was covered with birds of many varieties.  We literally had 18 birds.  Four sandhill crane's, three Egyptian ducks, four black-bellied whistling ducks and seven brown speckled Ibis. It was quite a sight.

Today I thought about that and laughed.  I've always loved the thought of being "flocked".  A term us snow birds use for a prank where someone surprises a friend and covers their yard with plastic pink flamingoes.  I had always thought how fun that would be to do to a few of my friends and family.  

And yesterday, God flocked my yard with His own "unprank".  A real, living flock of beautiful Florida birds unique to this area.

If anyone is interested in the plastic bird prank - here is a complete kit on Amazon including 24 plastic flamingoes and a sign "You've been Flocked."
