Maybe he doesn't want them chasing his fun away or eating his fun.\n\n_Image courtesy of Ms. Copilot and +he Ghos+ (2024)_\n\nAll the small woodland creatures Abe chases are food for the Great Plucker Uppers of the sky, also known as: Birds of Prey.\n\nWonder if birders call them BOPs.\n\n_Image courtesy of Ms. Copilot and +he Ghos+ (2024)_\n\nIf I were a birder, I'd most definitely call them BOPs.\n\n> Another BOP in the sky.\n\n> Oh, what kind of BOP?\n\n_Image courtesy of Ms. Copilot and +he Ghos+ (2024)_\n\n(I'd use the word BOP as often as I could, if I were a birder.)\n\nThere's a name for birders, a scientifically important sounding one. Maybe something with the aviary prefix to it. I'll look it up later.\n\n_Image courtesy of Ms. Copilot and +he Ghos+ (2024)_\n\n#### An Ornithologist is the professional name.\n\nLots of other fun slang versions... search, if you'd like.\n\nSometimes he barks at the sky for no apparent reason.\n\nI, too, can spot a BOP high up as a BOP can go.\n\n_Image courtesy of Ms. Copilot and +he Ghos+ (2024)_\n\nBut what about birder dogs? How high can they see?\n\nPerhaps it's a satellite.\n\n_Image courtesy of Ms. Copilot and +he Ghos+ (2024)_\n\nNow that's a good start to a story, a dog that can spot satellites in the sky.\n\nThat raises a lot of questions.\n\n_Image courtesy of Ms. Copilot and +he Ghos+ (2024)_\n\nAny time you can start a story with a dog, or a cat, you should. You're guaranteed a reader for at least a few more paragraphs.\n\n#### So, Abe the Dog\n\n(I'll specify in case you're not familiar with the site and don't know. Abe is the hound I rescued from Texas. Longview, Texas ironically. Which ironically, ironically fits with the blog. Which, if you read you already know, and have no purpose for reading this parenthetical. Which, I not ironically, most unfortunately, should have mentioned in the first sentence of it. Precious time presses for time! Onto the next!)\n\n_Image courtesy of Ms. Copilot and +he Ghos+ (2024)_\n\nHow to bring this entry around to make some profound poetical insight into the world?\n\nSomething about friends sometimes being able to see what we can't?\n\n_Image courtesy of Ms. Copilot and +he Ghos+ (2024)_\n\nSomething about the soul matched with the knowledge of dogs and cats and why would they ever choose to come live with us?\n\nThat's another route to take towards purpose: Talk about, what we've so sonorously unfortunately started calling 'fur-babies'.\n\n_Image courtesy of Ms. Copilot and +he Ghos+ (2024)_\n\nThe Institution of Fur Babies.\n(Probably the Title) ^\n\nThat's a great saying: \"The lunatics are running the asylum.\"\n\n_Image courtesy of Ms. Copilot and +he Ghos+ (2024)_\n\nIt means: Watch the nightly news after you've looked up synonyms for birders.\n\n_Image courtesy of Ms. Copilot and +he Ghos+ (2024)_\n\nSynonyms for Birders\n(Another good title.) ^\n\n> \"He's not really saying much this entry, but I keep reading. Not quite sure why. It's not the pictures. That's just a quick scroll to see fur babies.\"\n\n_Image courtesy of Ms. Copilot and +he Ghos+ (2024)_\n\nI ought to say something to help your day.\n\nPerhaps I'll just work here in the sanctuary of pretty prose and keep it to myself.\n\n_Image courtesy of Ms. Copilot and +he Ghos+ (2024)_\n\nPregnant potential! That's a way to end. A Great Phrase.\n\nOr I'll just leave it open for you to infer what it all means.\n\n_Image courtesy of Ms. Copilot and +he Ghos+ (2024)_\n\nAfterall the best way to say something, sometimes, is to say\nNothing at all.\n(A much better title) ^\n\n_Image courtesy of Ms. Copilot and +he Ghos+ (2024)_\n\n#### +he Ghos+\n\nWynn\n\nBrought to you by the emoji of the day: 💇 __haircut__",
