Adept at adapting
June 5th, 2009 § 11 Comments

The Illustration Friday theme for this week was ADAPT.
My first thoughts were rudely interrupted by a scritch-scratching at my window. It turned out to be a large, glossy Indian Myna bird pecking at a moth in the shutters. Procrastination and I are old buddies so, naturally, I sat and watched. The bird sauntered along the windowsill and peered in at me, bold as brass. And there it eyeballed me with a menacing look, as if to say “You gotta problem?”. For a moment I felt like the trespasser.
I guess you could say a good example of ‘Adapt’ was staring me right in the face. Oh yes, Mynas will still be here long after we’re ancient history. They can make themselves at home anywhere!
very good idea, well executed
Wow! I love the expression!
I too am friends with procrastination!!! That’s what I’m doing right now as I read your fabulous blog….LOL
